Not Your Grandmother's Flower Garden
8" x 10"
I added a few beads, but only rearranged beads on one flower. Those things were TIGHT. When I bead, I bead. I also decided it looked better in this orientation than in the landscape one although I'm still not totally sure of that. I think I owe the idea of turning it to Nellie, who turned her "Imagine Monet" with wonderful results. I could critique on and on, but in general I'm pleased. There are a few stray threads in the picture, but I rushed to take the picture while the afternoon sun made the quilting texture show up so well.
Thanks for all the interesting comments on my math rant. I guess we all muddle through, whether we have math problems or not. The important thing, in my view, is to at least try.
It looks great!
ReplyDeleteEye-catching. In every sense of the word. That quilting really grabbed me. You did a fine job indeed.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty piece Kay. Love the colors.
ReplyDeleteI get lazy about math since I live in a house full of math and science wizards. I must try harder to figure things out without going to the source.
This looks good in either orientation, which means it would be easy to hang.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty piece!
ReplyDeleteI think I like this orientation best. The quilting, the beading, the soft color--this piece turned out so well!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty - I like how the edges are cut off.
ReplyDeleteIt does have a vintage feel to it but also has a contemporary quality-good duality!
ReplyDeleteI like the added sparkle and the leaves you stitched into the background. Lovely details.
ReplyDeleteSweet and lovely, great details.
ReplyDeleteLove it! =(^_^)=
