Alzheimer's donation quilt

I am committed to the Quilt-A-Month challenge to support the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative.
The task at hand involves the creation of a small quilt every month for at least 6 months for donation purposes.This is my first quilt called "Flores" which is Spanish for flowers.
materials used: junk mail, old newspapers and fabric
techniques: hand calligraphy, laminated paper, paper cloth, machine stitching and hand embroidery.

    Hi Margaret! I do fabric cloth with junk mail and from that I form the flowers.

    Hi Judy! Yes the background I painted with acrylic and water colors.
