[HatchedDesignForum] Re: Floral Sketches 1 & 2 Projects Posted

 

Sue, you may have save me some money. I had a hard enough time deciding how to spend my dollars at the trunk show here in Mobile. If your Floral Sketches wall hangings had been in the show when they were here, I'm afraid I would have a few dollars poorer! Just georgeous. You have added to my wish list. Thanks for sharing.

> 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!

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!!!
