Scraps and Strings: Be-ginning a project

Be-ginning a project

I'm playing around with an idea here on writing on quilts.

I've made many word quilts with pieced in letters.

Now that I've built up some skills in free motion quilting

I've decided to write on fabric in another way.

Here's my first word: "Be"

It may be the start of a sentence.

Stay tuned.

The back: a vintage linen map tea towel.

The whole thing measures 8.5 by 11 inches

I'm linking up with TNTN and WIP Wednesday.
