This is part of my “Quilted Portrait” series.  Mellissa is a fantasy character, perfect for children!  There are sixteen squares in all.  I started with a small drawing and copied it 16 times.  I took 16 different fabrics, one square each.  I cut out all of the pieces, using the drawings as patterns. I assembled each individual portrait like a little jig saw puzzle.  It is machine appliquéd and machine quilted.  All of the eyes are polymer clay.
