I have made a lot of progress on my sunflower quilt since I last shared it here. I'm trying to get it done soon, so I have been working on it quite a bit. I'm planning on having it done for the art show I'm attending on June 27. You can find all the details for that show here. After the painting was done I added thread sketching in yellows and oranges to add more depth to the petals. I added some white stitching for highlights. I added some stitching around the outside of the center. I like what this stitching adds to the flowers. After the thread sketching was done I quilted around the center of the flowers. I also quilted around the petals so that they stand out from the background. Then I quilted in the background. Now I'm adding embellishments and when I'm done with them, I will finishes the edges. The embellishments are going to complete the flower centers. I'll share more when I get more done. For now have a great week and I'll be back tomorrow to share my latest pattern.

I am a mother of five children from ages 21 to 5. I spend most of my time mothering and keeping house. In my free time I like to play with textiles, art journaling and painting. I have a degree in textile and apparel studies with a design focus. Right now I am more interested in fiber arts than apparel design, but I don't know where my journey will take me. Categories
