Holiday panel with trapunto, couching and beads
 

Took a while, but just finished this panel quilt, in time to hang for the holidays. I used a lot of different techniques on this one --

• trapunto on the deer, snow and large ornaments,
• programmed stitch on my DSM for the border,
• satin stitch for the letters under the ornaments, and the cords they hang from
• a zig-zag free motion for the background between the trees
• couching on my LA for the antlers and swags
• couching on my DSM for the green edge of the binding
• hand-sewn beads

Phew! Thanks for looking!
