It is Quilt Week in our corner of the world.
So we decided to feature some fabric with quilts on them
for all of you who do not actually quilt.
(We don't want you to feel left out.) 😉
Here is a fabric that you might find pretty but challenging as to what to do with it.
Well, let us show you what can be done with it.
Rachel made these scrapbook page layouts.
(Card-makers, stick with us! Your turn is coming.)
By cutting apart the barns, she was able to piece together a layout.
She used this fabric to create her own grassy landscape.
(Sorry, my camera was struggling to capture the correct shade of the fabric.)
She also cut cows from this fabric to add to her layout.
Do you notice how the cows run into each other?
Rachel cut them apart even though some of the legs were cut off.
Here's another layout.
If you zoom in on the layout, you can see some of the cow's legs
(that had to be cut off) are tucked in behind fronds of grass.
She used this die to create the fronds of grass.
She also cut roosters out of this paper to add to the landscape.
You can also embellish with butterflies or birds, etc.
But you can do more than scrapbook pages with this barn fabric.
(Enter, card-making!)
Here is a card that Rachel made from leftover scraps of this fabric.

Look closer at the above card front.
Do you see the wheelbarrow? It looks like it is tucked behind a bush.
It came from this part of the fabric.
It's actually the top of the tree. She cut it off.
What do you do with a leftover cut-off tree?
Try this card.

Here is yet another card (A7) made from this fabric.
Those of you who know Rachel ... what does she always say?
"The world is wide!"
There is no limit to creativity!
Keep creating!
