Christmas panel
 
2 Attachment(s)
I had purchased this Christmas panel a few years back and never did anything with, well I went to a Church sale and I found the same panel all ready quilted and I loved it. Well I purchased it for 50 cents. The color really looks washed out, the way it is very lite panel, so I through I'd try some embroidery on it to pop it out, can't do everything as some things are to small, please tell me what you think, hope it shows up well enough. Thank you.

Thanks ladies, looks almost like it was colored in?

Jane Quilter 07-03-2017 06:37 PM

was it colored in? is it crayon? colored pencil? or the way the panel was printed at the factory?

No, this is the way the panel was printed. It's a very pale panel but I just loved it and was planning on doing embroidery on it anyway. I won't be able to do all the work I'd like as I don't want to go through on the back of the quilt. Some writing is way to small to do from the top.

Thanks so much, I also love snowmen, there so cute, this panel was so light, so wanted to brighten it up just a little and was so happy I found one all ready quilted and for only 50cents. Thanks everyone.

I like the added embroidery, it really brings out the designs in the panel.

You will love the end result. The embroidery adds so much "life" to the panel.

It's looking good. I like the "soft" look it has.
