Tree of Life

I have finished the second project from Pam Holland. I started it a month ago in San Miguel Allende, Mexico. It is a tree of life that represents my mom, her children and grandchildren, she was always so full of life. Ya termine el segundo proyecto de Pam Holland. Lo empecé hace un mes en San Miguel de allende, México. Es un árbol de la vida que representa a mi madre, sus hijos y sus nietos. Mi madre fue una mujer llena de vida.
To do the project, Pam showed us how to dye the fabric, then I outlined my drawing. After that I colored it and painted it with markers and color pencils. And then the free hand motion quilting (this was the scary part) I had to do it several times in diferent colors until I was happy with the result. Para este proyecto, Pam nos enseño a teñir la tela, después delineé mi dibujo para luego colorearlo con plumones y lapices de colores. Después llego el momento de acolchar a mano libre (esto fue de lo mas complicado) lo tuve que hacer varias veces en colores diferentes hasta que quede satisfecha con el trabajo.

I invite you all to visito Pam Holland's Blog she does amazing quilts. Los invito a todos a visitar el Blog de Pam Holland hace unas cosas increibles.
