At Layers Upon Layers, I discovered an ideal way to use your leftover fabric…swatch portraits.  Cyndi seems intrigued by this idea, too, which she found at The Purl Bee.  There’s even a tutorial at that site for creating wall art from your fabric by using embroidery and quilting hoops of various sizes. 

As I looked at the fabric portraits displayed, I also could envision them decorated with fancy stitching and embellishments.  There seems to be no end to the ideas  creative people can come up with in the fabric art world.
