Flower Fantasy-An Embroidered Quilt
I did it- A finished quilt in 2014! Help me celebrate!
I started this quilt many years ago (Read more HERE) but dropped the project because the colors seemed too bright and there were areas of embroidery that I didn’t like.
When I found it in a box earlier this year–I was in need of a little strong color in my world, so I started working on the embroidery again.
By ripping out a few areas of stitching, I was able to resurrect this project into something I like. This is typical of my work flow. I often get to a stage where I dislike my work and abandon the project. When enough time has passed, and whatever frustration is long forgotten, I am able to look at the quilt with fresh eyes and less harsh criticism. Then I can enjoy the project again.
I think I will frame this little quilt and will be glad to have a garden of flowers even in February!
What’s your work flow like? Do you ever abandon projects and revive them much later? I’d love to hear!
Now that you’ve dug up all your UFO’s (Read more HERE and HERE) Have you found any diamonds-in-the-rough?
Happy Stitching,
Lori
