RCQG - Show Challenge

 The Royal City Quilters' Guild's Quilt Show is this year.  They have challenge fabrics for a nightscape.  

The owl fabric is a bit intense, however, I think I have come up with a way to use both fabrics and give a nightscape.  I took a silhouette of a Japanese Gate (Torii) and placed it in front of a moon with a purple background and had two owls on it and a branch of a yellow cherry blossom in the front on the right side.

 Then I shrunk the moon and centered it just on the owls.  Trying to figure out which of the two I like most.  Will probably make both and see which one turns out better.

I am going to get to use a brother ScanNCut (borrowed from Monica B.) to cut out the cherry blossoms and then will appliqué them on to the quilt and thread paint over them.  To give them the detail I want. 

 Will post updates as I get moving with this project, would like to get it mostly done this weekend.
