The Permission 2 Play Instructors
gathered together for a Play Day...
We are making samples for a future class:
3D Fabric Folding
Virginia's 3D Sunflower Quilt
Kathi is adding 3D petals to her flower
Nancy is adding a second row of petals to her flower
We are cutting squares in half
to form triangles for the petals
We are using the snippets technique
for the flower center
Here is my center quilted and ready to cut out
My sunflower is ready for a center...
My completed sunflower
Kathi is stitching down her center...
Nancy's completed sunflower
Each instructor will take her flower home to complete
the edge treatment...
The flowers were completed in a bit over an hour,
so we feel this can be accomplished in a
3 hour P2P class.
At home I decided to embellish my flower...
With textile paints and stencils, I added chickadees
I also added a cord bound edge treatment
with round leather cording

Ok, I am fascinated by the idea of a bound leather cording on the edge of a quilt. Where do you buy it, and how do you attach it? That may be just the ticket for a piece I am working on!
ReplyDeletelove the corded edge treatment, and theses 3-d flower quilts are adorable, and fun!
ReplyDeleteThese are just adorable---wish I were close enough for this class. :) Your finished hanging with the birds is sooooo cute. :D
ReplyDeleteThose are so cute. The class attendees are going to have fun with them!
ReplyDeleteThese 3D sunflowers are gorgeous. Yours on the blue sky background is very happy. The stenciled birds and leaf branches are very fun. I love the corded edging and thank you for sharing your technique. Happy Hearts are Creative Hearts...
ReplyDeleteI LOVE what you did with your sunflower. The flower in and of itself was wonderful; your addition of the birds fantastic!
