And the Challenge Fabric...

Printed with carved turnip and green pepper

To join in the fun just post up to five GREEN photos on your blog, website or Flickr page and leave a comment here. I will continue to update this post throughout the day with a link to your photos. If you do not have a blog, website or Flickr page and still wish to play along, I will be happy to post your photos. Leave a comment with your email address and I will be in touch.

The Challenge will continue until midnight, Saturday, August 18th Eastern Time USA. Drawing for the Green Challenge Fabric will be on Sunday, August 19th. Remember to be eligible to win the Challenge Fabric, you must play along.

Also be sure to visit Jennifer's blog for more GREEN.

Fiona at Paper Ponderings has a beautiful quote about patience from Rilke and photo of a Japanese garden...such lovely greens!

More greens over at  Arzigogolare. Lisa outdid herself as always with beautiful water reflections, luscious plums and a GREEN trip through Venice.

More fabulous beasty greens here at ersimarina.

Can't wait to see all those GREEN posts!

A few more GREEN additions from Joan S--thanks, Joan!:

  1. What a beautiful bunch of different greens, Julie! I love all of the textures you captured too. And your fabric is really intriguing - I never would have guessed that you'd used vegetables to create the prints...very cool.

    Here's my green:

    1. Thanks Lisa- I love that you are always joining in. And your greens are gorgeous! Yes, I really got into printing with veggies. At first, for the next issue of my newsletter, but then I decided to send a magazine proposal to Quilting Arts about it. So some techniques will be in the newsletter and I will keep my fingers crossed that the rest will show up as an article in the near future.

  2. A bouquet of gorgeous greens! I love the apples and the lichen growing on stone but they are all so splendid! Printing with vegetables is a mystery to me but your results tempt me to give it a try.
