Remembering Camp Quilted Fabric Frame

August 19, 2016

LaurelCampFrame

Unlike the last frame I shared a few days ago, this frame was super quick!  My girls went to camp last week and had a great time with their cousins and new friends too.  My sister in law, Maureen, took this photo of them on the steps of the dining hall on the last day.

Camp is all about being yourself and I think this photo sums it up 🙂  To make the Laurel logo, I used my printer and Lesley Riley’s TAP paper.  You can get some here.  My transfer didn’t go perfectly, but I think it adds character to the camp frame!

Again, this one is made with fabric scraps.  This is a great project for finally using up those random pieces of fabric that you are saving.  I didn’t quilt this frame since I wasn’t sure how I would handle quilting over the logo.  When you quilt the piece, it add more structure which I like a little better, but this one still works very well.

How would you frame a photo like this?  I liked using the colors of the photo to choose my fabrics.  It makes such a cohesive piece
