My Paper Quilt

 I've  been  visiting  Pinterest  lately,  and  if  you've  been  there  too,   you  know  how  it  can  be--you're  looking  for  some  inspiration,  and  3  hours  later,  you're  wondering  where  the  time  went.   Needless  to  say,  I  found  some  great  inspiration  there..  

This  time  it  was  in  the  form  of  art  quilts.   I  really  admire  this  art  form--but  wouldn't  know  what  to  do  with  a  sewing  machine  or  needle  and  thread  if  you  handed  it  to  me. 

So  this  is  my  version  of  an  art  quilt.....my  paper  quilt.

I  started  out  with  my  'fabrics'--



......I  had  an  18 x 18 birch  cradle  board  that  I  decided  to  use  for  my  'quilt'  surface--





I  took  my  time  when  I  pieced  this  'quilt'  together--I  thoroughly  enjoyed  the  process  of  putting  it  together.   And  in  the  end......


My  Paper  Quilt!
