Fabric Flower Art

My dear friend Cilenia (who is the digital designer I often scrap for) is an amazing artist!  She recently made this art quilt that I just adore!
Isn't it gorgeous?!
Check out her post- she has lots of pictures of her process.

I went to her house yesterday and she taught me how to do the same art!

I will mention that I tried to steal the aforementioned art quilt but she blocked me every time I went near it!!

First she taught me how to draw the flowers:


Then we set that aside to dry and she had one ready for me to paint:

What do you think? I love it!  Not as much as hers, but I was afraid if I kept going I'd mess it up, and I really wanted to save it! I came home with my drawn flowers and her artist pencils, and plan to play for a long time!

Thanks, Cilenia, for sharing your art with me!
