| One more poppy piece before the year ends. I did an experiment with thickened dye spread on a plastic mat and pressed fabric over the surface. The dye bubbles and moves so it's very upredictable (but fun). I used some cardboard poppy shapes as a resist. The left side is a piece of shibori with the same dyes; I used clothespins as my resist. Poppies are free motion stitched and I heavily machine quilted the background It's small, only 12" x 12". Happy New Year Everyone! Hope I can remember my password..... Wil, can you help??? |

The poppies themselves turned out wonderful! I think the horizontal quilting helps balance the very vertical tendency otherwise. Great balance!
ReplyDeleteI really like this piece, everything about it seems so right.
ReplyDeleteLovely! But I admit I am partial to poppies :-)
