Category entered: Dog-Themed Quilts
Techniques: fused applique, thread sketching, surrealistic colors
Finished size: approx. 13 x 16 inches
This is one of the first pet quilts I made (in 2011). I started with this photo of Neo, and used Picasa to posterize the photo. I really enjoyed the challenge of using surrealistic colors – where value is more important than color. You can read more about my portrait process here.

Terry, Neo’s quilt is absolutely awesome! I am heading over right now to read about your process! LOL
Kind of amazing how much it looks like the photo, even with the buttons for eyes. Very cool technique.
I love the colors you used, such a beautiful portrait.
This is a great quilt. You make me want to try one of my own. Thanks for the inspiration. I really like the colors you chose.
Another amazing piece!
