Here is my workshop project again, mostly embroidered. I still have to stitch down two flowers and a little of the background. Pamela is right that the embroidery floss adds additional line and dimension to the quilt. On my piece, that is most noticeable on the white area of the leaves, and around the flowers. The centers of my flowers just have a long running stitch. I am thinking there will be some beads or buttons or both when this thing is done. And knowing me, it will still have a go on Grendel the Gammill to add some fun machine quilting!
I like to make all kinds of quilts, from postcard to king-size. I have a Gammill longarm quilting machine, several domestic sewing machines, and also work with a Babylock Embellishing machine. In the past few years, I have tried my hand at painting with watercolors and art journaling. I also throw in a little nature photography and the occasional travel or grandchild pictures. Thanks for stopping by!
