Fabric, Batting & Thread


The elements of a quilt:  fabric, batting, and thread. To show each element the batting and backing were cut away from the center square, the hand painted fabric on the front and backing were cut away from the batting, and all layers were cut away (before quilting) in the “thread” section so the center square of fabric and batting floats within the frame.
 
 
I used a piece of my hand painted fabric for this project.   
Seven inches square.
