This morning I finished the quilting on the brown/gold/red piece. All straight lines, 1/2" apart. It took 2 1/2 bobbins! I marked the center with blue painter's tape and lined up the edge of the walking foot. Then I continued to line up with lines of stitching, working on one side and then flipping it around and working from the center out on the other side.
I like the texture. Now all that's left to do is squaring and adding a facing.
WAY last fall I was working on a small tree wall hanging. It was part of a challenge for the local quilt show with the theme "Branching Out". I realized that I had never shown it after it was completely finished.
The straight line stitching on this piece is by hand. It also has a little bit of embroidery and beading, plus some hand made polymer clay leaves. I actually made the leaves before I started the wall hanging. It's name is "Standing Alone".
