I took a class on Craftsy, Stupendous Stitching, and I am finally done!! Wahoooo!!! So nice to be done with a project.
This was an interesting technique and I actually followed the instructions almost completely!!
I did a lot of quilting that I hadn't planned on doing. I made the mistake of choosing a batting that was way too heavy or too much loft. So it really needed the intense quilting. I will NOT do that again!!!
I also glued it to a foam board which is glued to stretcher bars. I really debated on this one, gluing my little quilt????? Hmmmmmmm, that was a hard one. But I did it and I am OK with it!! :^)

ReplyDeletewow Martha, that is just stunning. I love how you have done that. Makes me feel a tinge guilty - I have that course too...but so far not touched it. you have really done an incredible lot of work on that and its beautiful!
OOps left a comment but its not here... so again - your work is stunning and I love all the work that has gone into this.
ReplyDeleteWow, love the couching, combinations of fiber and threads you used. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeletea great project, not sure about glue but if it not for an heirloom I am sure it will be okay, long term glue I think can damage fabric etc or so we were taught when I did my C & G embroidery qualifications
ReplyDeleteohhhh...love the little surprise of the lamb..
