Major Digital Manipulation
As mentioned in earlier posts, I’ve been experimenting with printing digital images to fabric and then quilting them. For my third project, I decided to work large. Partly to see how bad things would pixelate, and partly because I wanted to interpret a favorite photo at a size appropriate for a certain spot in my home.
This was the original photo.

It was taken on my parents’ farm at a big family event. I loved the way the 3 cousins in the foreground were skipping, but I didn’t need the other THIRTEEN people!
After LOTS of computer editing, I got this.
Much better, right?
I placed an order to have it printed at a very large scale: about 52″ high. And waited to see how well it would turn out.
