Today I made up a quilt top to do my FMQ on for the sewcalgal Challenge. It is really interesting reading all the posts about how quilters are getting on with this challenge. So inspirational!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I play around with little sample pieces I just don't like throwing them out ( I am such a hoarder) So I thought I would make my small sample pieces into ATC Cards it also gave my the opportunity to do some more painting on fabric. I am hoping to make a needle case using the blue piece I have quilted, I have used the leaf pattern as a fill in pattern around the feather.
Very cool! Lucky recipients for the ATC's :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love that you painted the FM leaf sampler. Are you using Pebeo Setacolor paints, or something else?
ReplyDeleteAnd, that quilted feather is awesome, I'm still learning how to do them, and still need a lot more practice.
The quilted feather is great!!! Do you think I can use paintet heart leaves for a birthday card? Yours look beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is a very good game but unfortunately I do not know where to buy iron color. My kingdom is not only met with textile ironnal Shiva chalk. 1x I would love to try a pen to color, but hu was great.
ReplyDeleteI have painted on textile medium then coloured it in with water soluable crayons. I watched a DVD by Kim Bradley this is what she does very inspirational. Have a go and good luck!

These are all very pretty. I can't wait to see your FMQ Sampler quilt come together. You are doing a great job and I love your idea of using FMQ for ATC.
