Hello everyone
I only discovered yesterday that 2 entries are allowed into the Bloggers Quilt Festival, the twice yearly quiltfest kindly organised by Amy from Amy's Creative Side
I have decided my second entry will be my Hummingbirds piece in the Wall Hanging quilt category.
It measures 27" x 35" and I've only finished it in the last few weeks. The appliqued hummingbirds were supposed to go in the border of another quilt I was making but they didn't look right. This is how this piece came to be.
I appliqued the birds, flowers and leaves using bondaweb then with the work in a slat frame, I hand embroidered over the top. Took quite a few weeks but was worth it.
This is the finished result:
I hope you can find the time to pop over and look at all the quilts. There are really some amazing entries - very inspiring.
Thanks for stopping by,
Rhianon.
