It has been a while since I have made an update… in between times we have been away overseas for 6 weeks…no sewing but I did manage to buy some lovely fabric in Amsterdam. Now home I can continue working on my current project.
It has been a 18 months since I started my Imaginary Garden quilt, designed around Yoko Saito’s pattern. I wanted to make a larger quilt to fit a Queen size bed, hence some pattern adjusting and expanding was needed.
I have finally completed all the appliqué and embroidery. I decided to alter the outside border to make the appliqué appear to float in the middle of the quilt and added a light blue border with the same fabric I used for the flower stems.
Now for the quilting…. I want the appliqué to pop, so will only outline the flower clusters and fill the background space. I am happy with the progress so far.
