Clown 'n Around - Made for the 2005 Arizona Quilters Guild Fall Meeting Challenge. Theme: Under the Big Top. When I saw the blue background fabric, the ovals looked like faces so I put that fabric in the background to look like 'the audience'. The tent is made from light weight canvas creatively folded and stitched down to look like a tent complete with ties on the front flaps. The balloon is cut from a mylar balloon. The clowns are fused down and the eyes and small pompom noses are glued in place. The flag pole on the top of tent is a toohpick, the flag is fussy cut fabric.
