Fabric illustration for the local food co-op



image copyright 2010 Linda Ruel Flynn

This is the art quilt (hand-dyed cotton, machine and hand stitched) illustration I created for the North Quabbin Community Co-op, http://northquabbinfoodco-op.blogspot.com/

Amy of Shelter Bookworks http://www.shelterbookworks.com/, is picking a type to complement the illustration.

I took the simple concept of farm to table and made the farm and table one. It was great fun making little veggies, plates, silverware and most of all the trellis laden with peas.

What cute forks. This certainly does speak about buying local and fresh. I wonder how big it is?
