The Garden in my Head

It may only be a month till spring, albeit a calendar month, but I kept my spirits up this long winter by working on this piece. Modeled after a piece by Klimt, I made it as whimsical and cheery as I could. 24x36.

That is a "WOW!" Just gorgeous! The blossoms appear to be 3D. How did you finish the edges of the petals?

The petals were made from two strips of materials, fused then shaped and drawn up in a five petal shape..

How stunning!! It is truly amazing to see how you artfully created this beautiful spring garden. It comes to life making it hard to believe that it is a wall hanging. Beautiful quilt. Greatly done.

Beautiful spring flowers! I haven’t seen the technique before. It’s pretty and should make you smile.

Lovely quilt! If it gives hope (northern hemisphere) I mowed my lawn yesterday...7 miles worth by my pedometer. Be careful what you wish for :)

Beautiful quilt. Bravo!

Jaw droppingly beautiful. Your brain must be a wonderful place.

Nita 02-25-2020 06:04 AM

Truly a beautiful work of art! You have inspired me to try making something similar. I have a book that shows how to make 3-D fabric flowers, as well as a couple of Clover flower makers. May I ask if you hand painted the "Monet" background?

JoyjoyMarie 02-26-2020 11:30 AM

Such delicious thoughts you play out in this quilt. Beautiful piece.

csharp 02-27-2020 06:37 PM
