Porch Study

I"m pretty proud of these porch steps. This is a study for a quilt I'm doing, and may end up being one of the pieces of it. I'm following along the lines of Beryl Taylor's Mixed Media, making small items in the same colorways/themes and then experiencing the unknown joy of how they will go together. So, these steps are from three different values of recycled fabrics, the pale highlights are actually from the distressed creases near the pocket of a pair of stretch jeans, cut using paper template from my drawing, temporarily sprayed in place and then free motion embroidered. now on to peaches....

Love the steps!!! What else will you make with these colors? The bracelet does look a bit warm... but I like the way the lime green pops!
