butterflywing asked me to post this quilt up for everyone.

this is the only quilt i actually own. i made it for myself 3 years ago and its hanging over our bed.

its a geisha panel by Michael Miller.

i put japanese family crests on the kimono and thru out the entire quilts (its the gold flower circle).

i also applique cranes thru out the quilt along with sashiko embroidery (done by machine).

then i applied silk flowers to give the flowers in the fabric a 3D element.

its going to be 9 pics total so hang in there and i'll get them all up.

some more pics

last set of pics

too bad we can't get to see the new york beauty one, also.


(is that you with the hula-hoop?)

A real Beauty!!! Love the 3D effects:D :D :D

LOL

no thats not me with the hula-hoop the blog and forum is really devoted to Weight Watchers and physical fitness. i used to own a health club and i train people for running races and weight training.

the forum is where we chat about nutrition, training, and life - i put together training schedules for them and they post back results/questions/comment.

when they found out i was a quilter they wanted to see pics of my work.

i'll post the other quilt when its all done. i still haven't settled on the border designs and i have to quilt it.

i plan on putting on beads, rhinestones, glitter, and some paint. i'll be keeping this quilt for our house so i can go over the top with embellishments.
