Wall hanging using silk flowers
 

Due to illness, and some other things going on in my world, I haven't done any quilting for about 2 1/2 months. Finally have things under control and couldn't decide what to work on so, of course, I started something new. I had these really pretty silk flowers, I took them apart and then sewed them on. I left the top layers free around the edges for a 3-D effect. For an experiment, I think it turned out pretty good.

Great idea!

Very pretty! You had a very good idea!

WOW - What a great idea, Just wonderful, great job and thank you for sharing, hope all is well with you
Have a Blessed day

How cute!! I have some machine embroidery designs that came with the flowers and it fills in the middle and the leaves. I have yet to do much with it but that is the way they look when done. You did a great job on it!

Way to go!!! They are so cool...great idea!!!

This turned out great. I did this a few years ago and it was fun.

That was a really nice idea, and I love something that shows the 3-D.

Great plan. Hope you dont mind if I steal this idea.

Very pretty!!!!!

Wow, that's neat! Beautiful work! And happy to hear you're back at it!

I have been down some myself with my rotary cuff tear and repair. .just been trying to do some sewing a little at a time.

What a great idea! I like it!!!

A tute would be very helpful on this. I have trouble figuring things out on my own.

I think it is beautiful. Best of luck on your recovery.

Very innovative idea! I love how the flowers give the quilt some dimension.

I tihink it's very pretty!

Very Pretty :)

Thanks everyone, glad you liked it. You are right it did help pick my spirits up. I was going to keep this, but my older daughter wants to take it to her office, so of course, I will let her. For those who want to give it a try, I think you will have fun, this is quick and very satisfying. I am going to make another one using smaller flowers and a vase. I think I will stay with the same background and borders.

Oh, I love this idea. So pretty. Thank you for sharing your idea with us.

Very creative! It's given a lot of people inspiration!!! Pat yourself on the back!!! :)
