Thank you,
I had seen that but had not checked the size or the price. That woudl be reasonable in price and a small project to start.

Well, I did a water color medium wall hanging. I bought a bunch of 2 1/2" sqs that were made for water color quilts when they first came out and were so popular. Unfortunately, the shop I bought the sqs from, is no longer in business.
I made the wall hanging a mountain looking theme and then sillouetted a full bodied Buck standing on a rock cliff, on top of the watercolor... using the water color as background. It turned out nice. Did take a long time to sew everything together and make sure you didn't get something turned wrong.

I then used the left over sqs for the front of a vest. Put the light colored sqs up around the shoulder and graduated the color on down the the bottom of the vest. I only had enough to do the front sides. I also sillouetted animals around the bottom of the vest. It turned out nice too.

I have made several full sized or larger, bed quilts with the watercolor Irish chain. I love the design and it looks so nice on a bed. Plus there are wonderful areas to do great quilting. It is not hard to do these quilts...all strip peicing... and fun to pick out the colors

Mamu,
Thanks for your input. I looks like a samll project is the way to go....I will give it a go this winter and let you all know how I did...

My cousin and I had a quilt weekend where we tried this technique. We made table toppers. I found this to be a fun way to make a quilt and plan to use it to complete one of my UFOs. Give this a try on a small project. I think you will have fun.

Thanks for your reply. I think small is the wa to go. It iwll be a winter project...I will wait until January to get started.
