Bella Kaplan – Book #3

My third challenge again deals with the Song of Songs.
I chose chapter 2 verse 3

3 As an apple-tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons.

Hand dyed fabric, collages, In Hebrew it is written “as an apple”.

    The simple composition and the contrast between background and trees is very effective ! I love how the apples are built !

    Nice choice, the complexity of the apples against the simplicity of the trees is very effective, lovely piece, well done.

  3. I love your choice of fabrics for apples and the overall design of your quilt. Goes well with your previous quilt.

  4. A very simple composition that conveys the meaning of your song.

  5. The high contrast elements you have used greatly add to the visual interest of your composition. The unexpected coloratin of the two apples makes this an exciting piece to examine.

    I love your composition and colours. Your background fabric has some bleuish green illumination that reminds me of green apples and makes it so interesting. I love this quilt. Bravo!

    Very striking composition and the contrast of the apple works really well against the simple tress. The stitching of the background gives a great textural element to the woods. Well done

  8. A seemingly simple but oh so effective design. There is great depth in your composition and the apples are beautifully special! Lov’it.

  9. I love the “simple” trees and the apples are so nice! I especially like the few leaves what makes this piece so interesting.

  10. What a strong visual and peaceful composition emphasizing the multicolored apples. Great choice of fabrics and interpretation of your theme. Well done.

  11. A lovely simple design that is brought to life by the colours used in the background and the structure of the apples. The stitching really enhances the whole effect. Lovely work.

  12. The contrast of your design with this choice of colours and the processing of the apples creates a very eye-catching work. Bravo!

  13. I love how you created depth in this piece. Beautiful multicolored apples.

    Bravo.

  14. Simple and strong composition, love it!
