I have lots of wool, for some reason. I keep it all in a nice box with no plans to do anything with it, but it’s there just in case. Jane LaFazio has a great art quilt DVD out that uses wool, and maybe I thought I would try those techniques out.
Instead, I saw a the wonderful Fashion Week collection of LeeAnn Marshall (of Project Runway fame) and was inspired by the “topography” looks in her Fall 2010 line. So, I made this little island, and it turned out pretty neat!
