Le Challenge #2 - Wings
I have to say this was an interesting challenge this month. "Wings" hmmm?? I had some things I wanted to try but was not sure that I could work it into a challenge. Then I saw Geta's quilting studio tutorials on Shadow Trapunto. I just had to try it. Lots of cutting, even for my simple design. I would recommend the new embroidery scissors I won at my quilt guild the other night, however, I do not recommend using it on this project while on the phone. I snipped a thread a little too close and made a small hole in the organza. I covered it pretty well later but still!! :) Not sure if you can guess from that left over batting?? I wanted to use a multi-color fabric to represent the butterfly wings. This ended up being really hard to photograph so I hope you can see the end result. "Reverberate" 18" x 18" Holographic organza makes the shadow over the trapunto cut pattern of circling butterflies. ...
