More Fabric Art

My current Art for Quilters class also had instructions for a landscape project of Mt. Fuji. I didn't really want to do Mt. Fuji, but I've been wanting to do a fabric rendition of a Jane Austen drawing that was done in 1804 by her sister, Cassandra Austen.

I created my own landscape with the English countryside in mind and then overlaid it with my rendition of the Jane Austen pastel. In my landscape I included the rolling hillsides that are famous in England and then included ancient man-made stone fence that have remained standing after hundreds of years, a HA-HA for Jane to look down upon and then the knoll on which Jane was sitting.

Here's the picture of my fabric photo.
