Started on this piece a few days ago ..
Love the colour purple and with using a silver silk thread i just knew it would well together.
Started off by cutting out two large squares enough for a 20inch cushion cover and a few good
inches spare .. Marked in the outline of a circle and guide lines for the feather surround .Adding a piece of 4oz wadding and a backing fabric .
Then off to the machine to get started on the Quilting ..
As you will notice there is was no set Design , just making a mental note of the space between the border and the center design.. saying that its a free for all as you go ..
I have decided to use a mixture of cobbles and echoing on the inside and stippling on the surround.
Found this Design to be simple and yet very effective .
Stippling is an easy way to finish off this piece , its effective and helps push out the main Design.
The backing fabric was a cotton floral design .
