Work in Progress Wednesday
Another quilt finished feels really good. A very large leaf was printed in multiple colors to create this one. I like that the leaf is heart shaped. I hand embroidered and hand quilted it. I got this quilt done just in time to show it to a senior's group yesterday. I was teaching them how to do some nature printing on paper but they loved that it could be done on fabric as well. I am linking with http://www.supermomnocape.com http://needleandthreadnetwork.blogspot.ca/ http://www.quiltfabrication.com/ https://sewfreshquilts.blogspot.ca/ edited to explain I paint a thin coat of fabric paint onto the back of the leaf. Then press the leaf onto the fabric. It is a simple process but a bit tricky to get the right amount of paint on the leaf. It is always good to practice a bit first.
