Hi everyone!! Santi and Peter will be in Temple, TX in 6 days!!!!!! Santi had asked me to come up with a project to be added to their trunk show using the Floral Sketches designs. So I decided to make 2 coordinating wallhangings. Each measures 38"x 21". Santi hasn't seen these yet, but Liese gave me permission to go ahead and post the pictures for those who can't get to a trunk show and those who can will get a sneak peak!
You will find these in our group Photo section in a folder named Floral Sketches 1 & 2. A little about how I created these. I did a layout in my embroidery software, then did a rough sketch of the basic lines on batting. I backed this batting with an inexpensive muslin fabric. The fabrics were cut roughly along the sketch lines and pinned in place. Then I secured the fabric edges using a monofilament (invisible) thread and a narrow zigzag. The next step was to quilt. I freemotion quilted the entire quilt, then used decorative stitches over the fabric raw edges. The embroidery was next. These are such fun designs!!! I created a label in embroidery software, and embroidered onto the backing fabric. Last was the binding. Done! In the nick of time!!!
I hope you can get to a trunk show and see all the wonderful projects and designs. I am so honored that Santi has asked me to make trunk show projects. Hope you like them!!
