Wallflowers wall hanging from panel
 

Here's a panel I incorporated into a wall hanging with some pieced borders. I experimented with using some metallic thread on my longarm (on the butterfly and the beetle) and did a little longarm couching also. Kinda fun!

What a beautiful wall hanging!

Ahhh..my daily dose of quilting inspiration! Thank you for sharing those!

Beautiful work....very talented.

Beautifully done, Kathy. Love the extra touch created by the use of the metallic thread.

That’s really neat Cat, I love the way you quilted it!

Just love the scarab.

Amazing threadwork brought that to life

Well done! That's a lovely piece.

Lovely. Good idea to try it out on a panel before a huge quilt. I would say that your experiment worked very well.

Amazing and your FMQ is perfect for enhancing it. Great job.

Very, very nice!

Nice wall hanging.

Not bad, really. I used a large needle and tried not to go too fast, to avoid getting the thread too hot from friction.

You should show this special quilt to inspire others. Thank you for inspiring me to consider metallic thread.

Your beautiful quilting elevated a pretty panel print to spectacular. Your thread choices are just perfect and add a very elegant finish. I know metallic thread can be difficult to use without breaking but you seem to have found the right combination of settings. You inspire me to try it-on my DSM.

Very nice!!!

A marvelous quilt. These panels are fabulous. I was luck to purchase one of the series at a show. What you did is with this one is fabulous and I am inspired to work on mine.
peace

Oh my gosh, that's stunning!!!!! What beautiful work you do- truly artistic.

Nice work!

absolutely, beautiful!

Very pretty! Thanks for sharing. I love the way you enhanced the blocks.

It came out really nice! I like the idea of starting with a panel to practice other techniques (like thread work). Then you aren't as inhibited...like thinking you might mess up a quilt that in itself took a lot of time to put together.
