Bozena Wojtaszek – M
Mushrooms
Inspiration: For the letters theme this year I decided to go with illuminated initials for food products. This is a perfect combination of my love for medieval art and food art. And my M went seasonal – it is for mushrooms.
Again all of my favourite techniques were in use– applique, beading, embroidery, hand and machine quilting. I also dyed the background fabric for the “old papyrus” effect and painted some extra gold spots just like the medieval monks did.

I love your choice of truly autumnal colours for this piece and the finesse of your details. Lovely…
I agree with Caro, like the curves and choice of fabric for your letter M.
Nice piece in harmony with your series. I like the touch of humour with the small mushroom hiding behind the big letter M !
Another lovely addition of your Illuminated letter series highlighting your beautiful, delicate handwork, but with a whimsical touch. Charming!

Lovely subtle colours for a very seasonal subject. The stitching adds superb detail.
As in other quilts of your series you caught the medieval spirit perfectly. I love the gold (haha) and I also recognize those mushrooms.
