Oine(Pine) Cone in Flight
 

Don't you just hate it when you make a spelling mistake in the title....and can't change it!!!!
Pine Cone in Flight!

This image caught my eye a while ago and I finally found the time to play with it. I had considered anchoring it to a branch but both hubby and I decided we liked it " in flight ". Roughly 18" and currently unbound. Painted over raw applique then machine sketched.

I like it " in flight "also! Very cute!

It is perfect as it is, in flight.

That's awesome!

(I admit that I clicked on the thread mostly to find out what an oine cone was!)

Another stunning quilt! (Isn't that just the Canadian spelling?)

i love it In Flight!

Haha That's a good one!!

Very nice, great job !

Very pretty.

what did you paint with?

I used a combination of ink sticks and pencils

This is absolutely stunning

very neat!!!

Truly beautiful! Love it just the way it is. I wondered what "Oine Cone" meant! Duh! Anyway, several years ago I appliquéd a pine cone for the center of a medallion quilt; I really have a fondness for pine cones!

another spectacular quilt

Another amazing piece of work.

That is awesome ...... you and your hubby were right, it looks good in flight.

Super. BrendaK

I always look at your pictures but must admit the title really intrigued me this time! LOL This is a real beauty. One of a kind work of art.

Perfection!

Very lifelike and well done!

I agree with Nan! But the stitching is divine, so yummy. :thumbup:

Now that is different and adorable.

Wow so nice!

It is stunning!

That is very cool!

That is amazing.

That's okay! It keeps people guessing and curios! Very interesting pine cone. Your quilt gets me thinking. Thinking about winter, peaceful in a lonely way. Just one...falling. I like it. I agree with you and hubby. Nice work.

Awesome. I hate autocorrect.

I love this! It's absolute art!

A perfect pinecone in fabric if not in spelling!

Wish I was half as talented. Love it and your gorgeous stitching.

When I opened your post I was blown away.

I never would have thought to try to reproduce a pine cone in fabric, but you have captured the texture, colours and all the strange angles perfectly. To recreate a 3d object so well shows the depth of your talent.

I really like this....and all your work(envy is not something we should have...but I do envy your work). I wish you could go into more detail about your process. I sit in awe looking at your work and wondering how it is accomplished.

I made an error when typing a reply, so I deleted it and started a new one. Just wondered, can you do that with a posting?

I like it! Are you going to border it with flying geese? (Sorry couldn't resist)

Nice art in flight.

I'm from NC, the land of the Long Leaf Pine. I love your beautiful pine cone!

Great quilt.
