I'm not sure how I'm going to hang it either...(it will keep in my office for at least awhile). I've been thinking about how to label it so I can hang it either way. Or maybe flip it over once a week or so. :p

Yes, I agree with Lisa, clear Swarovski crystals would add sparkle and reflect the beautiful, brilliant threads you have used.

It looks so wonderful Wendy.

Wendy - I truly love it -- front and back!!! Let us know how you label your masterpiece. I am planning a two-sided piece and would like to make a label that isn't obvious.

ohhhhhhh ahhhhhhhh and WOW. What a beautiful job. You have certain taken a simple quilt and made it elegant with the quilting. I am impressed and definitely good luck entering this little master piece.

You did an awesome job on this, beads will enhance the design. Be sure and post a picture when it is complete!!!!

DogHouseMom 05-10-2013 11:06 AM

Lovely!!

I envision small glass beads of complimentary (or contrasting?) color to the feathers ... perhaps at the end of the "spine" that travels into each feather petal, and in the pebbles that go up the center spine (clusters of beads), and the same clusters of beads in the centers of the flowers.

Also something to think about ... at 20X24 your quilt qualifies as a "mini" at a lot of shows .... including AQS Paducah!

Beautiful!

feline fanatic 05-11-2013 06:21 AM

Wow Wendy!!! This is awesome and most definitely enter it. I actually like the back better than the front. No recommendations for the bling but I am sure you will create something even more spectacular, if that is even possible.

Stunning!! The back is as beautiful as the front! Well done!

This is just a breathtaking example of FMQ. I am so impressed.

The different colours of thread for the feathers is so effective and adds that wow factor. The embellishments that have been suggested with add another level to that wow factor.

I'm at the point in my quilting journey where my focus is on FMQ, and you have inspired me to try those feathers. It will be awhile before my feathers will look like yours, but I am inspired.

Thank you for sharing your talents.

Carol34446 05-11-2013 09:37 AM

I would get some 3-4MM crystals or even 2mm and glass pearls in same size and color and make them center of flowers.

nannyrick 05-11-2013 10:17 AM
