Bakersdozengroup,a challenge'my favourite thing'





The Bakersdozen is a group where 13 ,a bakersdozen is an important item!
There are 13 members in a group for one challenge, the quilt is 13x13 inch!
For the first challenge I made my favourite chair, but put it in a favourite setting.

That fact gives the quilt a little surreal shine.
Below you see some pictures how I started this quilt.

Quilt Art challenge doll-meet Hortense

Another challenge finished....
Jill Smith organised an Artdoll challenge, make an alter ego doll, or make a quilt with a doll
I did both!
I made a doll, clothed it with felted and crocheted garments.
I called her Hortense,purely by coincidence I gave her the colors of a hydrangea,Hortensia in dutch,so hortense is quite suitable
Then I printed a photo and quilted that.....
Looks rather trashy, but perhaps my alter-ego would be a trashy person??????
