On to the quilting

This morning I finished off the machine applique, found some fabric for backing, and sandwiched it all up.  I used a double layer of batting so the applique will pop out from the background.


The afternoon was spent ditch stitching around all the various elements, there is quite a bit of puff in the background now so the quilting will have to be done carefully to prevent any folds occurring.  No prizes for guessing what I will be doing this weekend.

    Those "descending" flowers are fabulous! Love the whole top . . . usage of LV's and brights.

    Love it Pip. Your palette for background fabrics is lovely. The additions of blues just sets it off. Love it all!

    Beautiful Pip, I love the way you've used your fabrics for all these elements, and those three flowers trailing down are just amazing!

    A very pretty finish! I love your quirky low voloume selection, and the petals in the Kaffe plaid are lovely!
