I know it doesn't look much different but trust me, it is. The water, the birch trees, and the base of them has been quilted. Next 'up' will be the grass and then I'm toying with maybe doing some trapunto in the rock area.

- For those of you who don't sneeze every time you get near lavender, perhaps you'd like to try making THIS.
- There's an interesting article HERE about natural dyeing with plants.

I see progress, more texture. Trapunto, had to look it up, will be nice in the rock area.
ReplyDeleteNot sure how I'll accomplish the trapunto, but it's worth a try.
DeleteThe artwork is coming along a treat. And I'm about to bake lemon balm cookies, thanks to your lemon balm link. I'm amused that she's explaining how to plant and care for it. Around here I'm constantly tearing it out, because it's a mint relative and takes over.
ReplyDeleteLemon balm cookies - sounds good to me!!
DeleteCheck fieldfen tomorrow! Now that I'm back to food, I made them. Not bad.
DeleteLook forward to your review!
Deletethis piece is really looking beautiful--I love all the work you've done...nice job...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteThanks Julierose - it's getting there. Quilting is underway and soon I'll be able to do the really fun part - the embroidery.
DeleteI can see more texture. Looks great.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Quilting adds a lot of texture for sure. Glad you were able to see it.
DeleteYour water quilting looks very meticulous.
ReplyDeleteIt has a layer of shiny netting and then is quilted with silver thread to make it look like the sun is reflecting on it.
DeleteIt looks a LOT different! So many textural features now. Wow!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you can see the textures - I know they're there, but never sure that they show up in a photo.
