Iris

I started this month's QA Forum Challenge entry.  The theme is a technique from the magazine.  I chose thread painting and using a photo as the base.  Remember this photo:

I loaded it in the photo software, then posterized it and softened the edges:  Of course I can't find that image now!

Then printed it on fabric.  I used 3 shades of blue, 3 shades of purple, and 3 shades of yellow for the flowers.  I used 2 shades of green for the leaves and a lovely variegated brown for the background. 

Now I have to figure out what to do with it!  I am thinking about some sort of pieced border to make it about 8x10 size.
