SEW GOOD

Well this was one of the hardest LOs that I have attempted. The colours & patterns in the paper and the emblishment were really different from what I usually work with. So I have struggled big time, hence the time it has taken. I didn't have any photos that really suited, so I finally choose photos of Annabelle's 1st quilt, which had lots of colours and patterns. The paper range are from Bo Bunny "Vicky B", I couldn't use all the different paper as there were so many, but I have use about 6 plus the buttons. First I sprayed onto bubble wrap Spritz Sea Kiss then stampped onto the 2 base sheets of paper, then I used the same colour cotton that was used in the quilt and sewed around the edge. I added a Kaiser Craft sewing model and stuck the material to the back of a photo of the quilt and then drapped it around the model. Raised a couple of flowers, used inks on edges and left strands of cotton hanging around. Cricut Mini Monograms was used for the heading, then with my lovely hand sewing I went aound the letters etc.

  1. what a clever idea to use the quilt photos. I would have been really challenged by Vicki B too.
