This is the first of the 3D embroidery. This is done on 2 layers only of wash away ,about 30 flowers and I chose a few butterflies. The separate wings in the wash away attach to the tiles #6 and #9 and will be added for 3D affect after the project is assembled.The other butterflies can be added randomly to project at will.
The first tile I have done is #6 and I will do #9 next just to make sure I have the color code the same on the wings.There are 20 8x8 tiles in the quilt .This file opens in Jef but has Phaff colors so I have to change them on the fly with notes I have recorded the color change to Janome as I go,This is not a big deal for me as there's only about 15 colors to contend with,It will just become a mental thing after 3-4 tiles and probably wont need to record color change's.I just visualize the color photograph and select colors as they look as I proceed
