Working on Jacob's Ladder quilt......................


I drew the rough draft of the sleeping Jacob on freezer paper this afternoon................


And I think it turned out well............for a rough draft.   The hard part is putting this on fabric.  I think I am going to try colored inks.  I want the fabric to have a soft hand and I want it to appear dark like the night.  I'm not sure how I am going to accomplish this, but I'll never know if I don't try.


I am not sure about his right hand...........looks kinda wonky to me.  I will look at it again tomorrow.
