It's Getting Close!

I have been steadily working on my art quilt and it's getting close to a completed top. The piecing is almost done. I placed a small amount of organza on top of a small area that I want to have the mist coming up on just to see if it will work and I think it will.

At the Fibre Content Show that is also exhibiting one of my art quilts, I saw several pieces which used silk organza and I really liked the look. I took special note of how these artists used the organza and how they applied it. The organza is transparent so the background is still visible behind one layer of it. If you want to see less background you just place a couple of layers over each other. The organza also gives the piece a bit of a shimmer which might be a plus on my quilt.
