Calif_Sue's blog: Garden themed fabric collages

I just posted this in another thread and decided to add it to my blog as well.
I've been quilting since 2016 but a couple of years ago I made a fabric collage of a clementine tree for a wall hanging, I still need to quilt the pieces down and add a hanger. It's 20" x 32".




A month ago I started a new collage project (from same pattern designer) It's a garden quilt with 12 individual collage blocks, 6 flowers and 6 critters/bugs. The collages each get fixed to fabric squares and eventually get all sewn together. Here's what I have so far, I get a new surprise pattern each Monday until complete. Just got a poppy yesterday, I'll make mine orange of course for a California version.










Found this butterfly photo online so decided I will make it different from original, almost done with that. The photo has an fascinating background, it's a bred variety of a common buckeye, see link below.

And I also just made this separate mushroom wall hanging, I plan to make more as mushrooms seem to be a popular trend!
All these still need to be quilted down. It's a fun hobby, one I especially enjoy as it's garden related.
