Vine Ripened

Here's my other 12"x12" tomato quilt, Vine Ripened.  The green square is canvas that I painted.  I stitched the canvas to hand dyed fabric and painted more tomatoes.  The "T' is needle felted wool.  I also needled felted more wool on the tomatoes (see the blue?).  I embroidered tomato varieties around the green square.  The hand is cut from the covering of a tangerine crate and fused in place.  I also glued some pieces of phone book on the tomatoes.

Lots of techniques, lots of fun.
