My Prisms Wall Quilt with FMQ'd Feathers
 
4 Attachment(s)
Here's a small wall quilt I've been working on for the last couple of weekends. It's a bit of an experimental piece that I'm thinking about entering a competition at a quilt camp I'm going to in about a month. It measures about 20 x 24, and I did the freemotion quilting on my Juki DSM.

I'd like to still add some beads and maybe some other "stuff" and would appreciate any suggestions!

Wow! Just amazing..

Love it. The back is awesome.

Tartan 05-09-2013 07:29 PM

Gorgeous! I think some kind of tassel or dangling beads would look nice on the points of the bottom row. They would hang in the black, look pretty and create movement as people walk by.

yes
love your quilting

I should not even open my mouth (or my keyboard) because I'm not in your quilting league, but since you asked, I'd love to see some kind of crystals in the center of the flowers you've quilted.

Wonderful FMQing, the back is just superb.

azwendyg 05-09-2013 07:41 PM

Great suggestions Tartan and Lisa! I've been looking for something to make some beaded tassels out of but haven't found quite the right combination yet...

Thanks Joy! I hope you're doing well. How's your FMQ journey going; have you taken any Craftsy classes yet?

Just so beautiful-the back is fantastic!!!!!:thumbup:

klaws 05-10-2013 03:57 AM

Beautiful! I also thought a bead or crystal would look nice in the center of each flower. Let us see what you decide to do.

What a gorgeous piece, your project stitching makes me feel like such a beginner. What an inspiration to those starting to quilt their own projects! Thanks for sharing the photos.

sewellie 05-10-2013 04:13 AM

Now wouldn't any of those be cute bookmarks? I'd say so. Blessings to you.

DebraK 05-10-2013 04:14 AM

Very interesting idea! (I have several "prism" pieces leftover.)

Peggy Jeanne 05-10-2013 04:48 AM

You need to enter this quilt! People need to see your talent!

orangeroom 05-10-2013 04:52 AM

I think that is stunning the way it is. Nice work.

homecaregiver 05-10-2013 05:07 AM

What a gorgeous wall hanging Superbly done in my book. I love all the bright colors and it would look even great in a bigger size. But I love the wall hanging size too.
You should be very proud of this accomplishment.

I am not sure which I like more, the front or the back. I keep scrolling back and forth.
