I photographed a bulb and used the picture as the basis for this first challenge.
This is my interpretation of the daffodil bulb, it was drawn free hand. I have used free motion quilting and satin stitch.The back ground is pieced from various creams and light browns.
The quilt measure 15.5 x 18 inches (approx 39 x 46 cm).
All cotton fabrics with cotton wadding.
A close-up of the stitching.
Lovely. I like the shapes you saw, & use in the bulb.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a good subject - Sue - You did lovely job on the bulb and I liked the way you pieced the background. Really a great art quilt.

This is such an unusual piece. I never thought of it but you are right, bulbs do hide a hidden treasure. A great interpretation.
