I had too much fun making this one too! The embroidery took awhile and I know it's hard for you to see the dimension that most of it has, or that I added glitter to the snow-topped mountains.
And here's a closeup of the embroidery so hopefully you can see more detail...
"MOUNTAIN MAJESTY"
measures approx. 18x23"

Yes, I think you have to see this piece in person to appreciate it best. Especially the embroidery.
ReplyDeleteIt's difficult to get a picture that shows the dimension in the embroidery, for sure. Wish you could see it in person!
DeleteAs always I made your photo bigger so I could see the stitching up close and it is so beautiful. My goodness, what a talent you are! I'm here struggling to keep my string machine stitching straight while you are creating art!!!
ReplyDeleteHah - the entire reason I don't do 'sane' quilts is I can never keep my stitching straight. With landscapes it doesn't matter!
DeleteHello MA: I have been missing in action with commenting, it has been very busy here. This quilt is lovely, I own one of your quilts and can attest that your work is amazing and beautiful, I hope you sell this amazing quilt.

ReplyDeleteThank you Dianne. You're so right about fun being a total bonus.
DeleteOh wow, it looks amazing, love the embroidery and wish I could see the glitter on the mountains! xx
