Here is my next challenge. It is a very muted pale yellow - green to bronze collage of hand dyed cotton. The size is about 34 x 50. Below is a detail showing how I have stitched the raw edged fabric pieces together using a free motion zig zag stitch. In doing this stitching, I have included the batting and backing fabrics so it is essentially already basted together in layers. I don't have to worry about anything other than getting the printing imagery and quilting right.
