Portrait Quilt
This is a project my husband and I did together a while back for a friend's Big birthday. He adapted a photo in Photoshop, simplifying the image and turning it into blocks of color. He then printed out the image, cut up the shapes for patterns, then we cut up fabric, layered and fused the pieces down and stitched very close to the raw edges. The fabrics were batiks in honor of our Indonesian friend.

      Thank you. The graphics work is my husbands, I've tried it on my own and been less satisfied with the results.
