This small quilt began as a sample for one of my Landscape classes. I had two goals when I began the piece. I wanted to keep it simple in order to demonstrate techniques and to make a multi-fabric sky to demonstrate appliqué. At about the same time I needed to add my border, realized that I had a perspective class (Viewpoints) scheduled. So naturally, I thought it would be a good idea to use this piece as my class demo. I decided to try to carry the colors of the scene out into the border.

As I had hoped, the piece became a successful illustration of a 3-D border as well as atmospheric perspective.
