I was having a great time, and put together piece after piece. Melody was very helpful (and gentle) with her comments. She looked at my first piece (photo 1), and helped me understand that there were way too many things going on in it--too many elements. So I CUT IT UP and started again (photo 2). Most of the pieces from the first piece became elements of other quilts during the 2-day session.
When I had a hard time understanding how she built a background, Melody came right in and started re-organizing my fabric and together we made a fantastic background (photo 3). This piece is now complete and hanging in my office at work, as a reminder of my artistic side and the joy of collaboration.
