Nine Patch in White

Nine Patch in White
Framed in Black Metal 12" x 12"
 
I am really enjoying exploring the ways that texture and depth can be explored.  Besides the raised nine patches, I have used fringed selvages, cording, and decorative trim.
 
Texture View

I darken this view a lot in order to show the depth and texture of this piece.

I used a firm polyester batting for the squares.  I then stitched around them from the front.  Following this, I cut alway all the fabric and batting not in the squares.  This was because I wanted the squares to physically stand out.
