QUILTING OR CLEANING
Did you ever notice that once you start Spring Cleaning you want to change everything from pillows to wallhangings? I’m in that uncomfortable mode these days…nothing can be clean enough and I want something new to view!
So…I dusted awhile, then I started stitching!
My Grand Plan is to make three of these panels in different colors and then hanging them together as a triptych in my bedroom.
The thread is Superior’s Magnifico-trilobal polyester with Aurifil 50 wt cotton in the bobbin.
Of course, stitched on my BERNINA–a domestic sewing machine–no long arm here!
Instead of meandering between the flowers, I stitched lines. (We all know how I feel about Meandering-)
I really think the lines are very effective! Because the flowers and leaves are really open and the background is tightly quilted, the flowers POP off the quilt.
Give this a try…
Or you could always….dust….
