Kathleen's First Commissioned Quilt

The top picture is a photo I was given of a family farm.  Along with the photo I was given a bag that contained an old jean jacket, with the name of the farm, and a the farm's logo (pig). I was asked to incorporate those items into the farm picture in an art quilt.  The bottom photo is the finished art quilt. I found the photo very hard to work from and had many challenges with scale, shadows, etc.  The new owner of the quilt was pleased with the results.  Phew!
