ieune'Winter'
A wallhanging that can also double as a table runner. Made from a charm pack plus a little extra yardage for a feature fabric, backing and binding, it goes together very quickly. I didn't realise it at the time, but those charm packs aren't accurate cuts, hence the compounded errors that crept in. [heads desk] I was more watchful making up 'Instant Sunshine', which used the same format but different fabrics.
Anyway,
'Winter' is from the fabric line of the same name by Minick and Simpson for Moda. 16" by 40". Free-motion quilted lines of a holly leaf and three berries.
The feature fabric background I free-motion quilted in small bubbles to make the poinsettia flowers 'pop' forward.
Not the best day for photography and some colour compensation has been attempted. The colours are much richer and clearer in life than they appear here.
