I embellished the left feather with some French knots - the stitches are rather long and the quilt might be washed in the future being a bed cover when finished. I hope the knots will keep the satin stitches somehow in place
And this is where I got lately my inspiration from
(after I was inspired by Jude Hill - see sidebar)
I found an article in our newspaper half a year ago,
cut it out and sticked it into my studio journal
never thinking I could use it some time

Your embroidered feathers are so lovely Anneliese, and incorporated into your quilt will make a gorgeous bedcover. I also love the picture you saved from your newspaper. I wish our newspaper shared such lovelies!! The one on the extreme right seem to be looking at me.
ReplyDeleteDeine Federn sind wunderschön.
ReplyDeleteLG,
