This is the first stage of a wall piece I am working on using the instructions from the latest issue of Quilting Arts magazine. My color scheme is based on a piece of "Country French" style fabric. I think I need a little more red, but I'm happy with the design so far. So far, so good!The image is abstracted from a photo of a vase of gerbera daisies -- cutting out each individual blossom took me all afternoon! Thankfully, I had the whole house to myself today, and all the housework and bills caught up, so I had freedom to really play.
The next step will be to add free-motion machine stitching. That's going to be fun, but will have to wait until tomorrow. My back and eyes aren't up for any more close work today.

That looks really neat - I love the way the flowers look! Can't wait to see the next step!
SUCH pretty & cheerful colors, Judi! I hope you'll show it all finished! How big is it going to be? And I'm still hoping to see the finished oil paintings you were working on! See? I haven't forgotten! LOL!
