I've been thinking and reading and thinking about what I wanted to get into to keep my mind "sharp".....LOL
One night I stumbled unto this BLOG and was astounded and delighted at what I saw.
Virginia Greaves' blog caught my attention and I couldn't get enough of her unique spin on quilting. She takes portraits of people, animals and just about anything you could think of and turns them into "ART."
After reading and bookmarking her blog, I have plunged in with both feet.
I'm working on my #1 Little Princess, Ayden for starters.
Using Virginia's techniques for choosing fabric, I've come up with the above so far. Of course, it will need several more pieces and placement of fabrics but I'm really happy with it so far.

I've always been in awe of people who create portrait quilts. You go, girl!
That is going to be just wonderful Rhonda. Your eagles and animals were just practice for your faces. Do you suppose we'll get to see the whole family?! I'm anxious for your next post.
Oh my goodness....you never cease to amaze me....that is wonderful!
That is just so cool!! Another great talent of yours I see! LOVE IT, Rhonda!! Of course you had an adorable subject to begin with!
Beautiful job Rhonda! I've come to the conclusion that there's nothing you will not try. Gosh, I wish my schedule wasn't so hectic right now...
Midas touch, Rhonda. Midas touch.
So cool! Such a neat idea-and how neat would it be to have your face on a quilt : )
I'm sure your project will turn out great!
