I like to work with fabric equally as well as with paper when I am designing my collages. This little heart is a combination of the two. I've used muslin, batting and various fabrics to create the heart shape itself. I then stuffed it with tiny treasures of found papers, shells, beads, etc. and machine stitched it in a quilted design. I like to call them remnants as it is a great way to use up little scrap pieces of fabric and ephemera that I'm sure all of us artists and crafters have lying around all over the place:)

Mixed Media Mini Art Quilt

This is a scan of one of my mini art quilts. I have not finished it yet as I'm not completely certain what I'm going to do with it. I think it would make a lovely art journal cover and most likely that's where it will end up. I've used various fabrics, laces, threads and papers to create this fabric collage mini art quilt.
