Features on Lithologic Landscape

cars, trucks, etc.

I have been working away on my lithologic landscape project. There is a lot of detail on this piece and these are some of the them. To make the cars, trucks, fuel pump, trailer, etc. I first drew them on cotton fabric. Then I used Tsukeniko inks to "color" them in.

After the painting stage, I stitched each piece to a piece of wool. The wool gives the piece a little loft on the quilt surface, and adds a contrasting color to help it stand out.

I think they look kind of cute!
