March Journal Quilt


"Parrotpalooza"
12.5" by 14"
Acrylic Inks on cotton, cotton threads and wool batt

This is my take on "spilling over."  The parrots are spilling over the sides.  I was going to have them all sticking out, but I couldn't bear to cut away anymore of the background.  I did this mainly as an exercise in using these acrylic inks.  And no, there wasn't any ink spilled.
