Toward 2025

 I am participating in a project, Toward 2050.  There will be a massive labyrinth at Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix, AZ. You can read all about it here. We are making banners similar to prayer flags. I made two of them a couple of months ago and Ann Morton, the designer, sent out a call that they are still 900 short of completing this huge job. The deadline has been moved to Dec. 31. If you are interested you can sign up on the website.

They are to be environmentally themed banners. The last two that I made  a while ago were flowers and cacti. This time I chose fish, mainly becasue I had a huge stash of fish fabric. The flags are two sided so I had to make 10 panels for my five flags. 

I chose to fuse the fish down and then button hole stitch around each one with variegated threads. I also printed out SAVE OUR OCEANS on some of them. On some of them I used an ombre blue fabric from my stash  and others my hand dyed shibori fabic in aqua. 

These last two were part of Round Robin a few years ago. I made the shibori fabric and the next person handpainted the fish. I had to piece the other side of the panel.

I am linking up with Off the Wall Friday. Please pop over and see what everyone's doing.
