ICON

I thought and thought about this theme and finally came up with an iCon as I was using my iPad and iPhone.  The Mac apple symbol is very prevalent in our home.

 Plus, apples are so yummy this time of year! :)
The apple and blue background are made out of felt and the borders are cotton.  I used losts of thread work for shading. The piece is 11" x 11".

I created icons for important things in my life…..love, kindness, relaxing in Maine, being outdoors, creating, traveling to my favorite places, peace, flowers and gardening, and quilting. Now I need an app that magically creates more time in each day for these!  

Twelve inches square.

To me Icon is a religious symbol, so I wanted to do a cross. It's foiled and then edged with a metallic braid. The quilting is done with a copper metallic thread. It's 17" square.
