This is about as good as it's going to get. I gave up fighting the gold on the flower and added more, including gold as the backing to the plate/circle. There will be more gold thread accents, probably as part of the quilting. I'm starting the assembly now, hoping that everything will fit together.
This is so original! I expect the Hoffman people to be blown away.
ReplyDeleteI love how it feels entirely Japanese, but in a different way than the original fabric.
I had to enlarge the photo and I just love the fish and flowers!!! You are doing and outstanding job!
ReplyDeleteLooks mighty fine to me!
ReplyDeleteWow! What an entirely clever idea--very original, which is sure to grab the judges. Here's hoping it goes together in a snap. I am diggin' it.
ReplyDeleteI think it's great! are you happy with it??
ReplyDeleteGosh this is amazing! You do such lovely work. The fabrics are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe I lost you. Dern bookmarks and feeds. :(
But now I found you and your lovely work.
Happy Day! *karendianne.
I like the gold additions. Since the entire piece has such a watery feel, the gold is like sunshine sparkling on the surface.
