All the spare time I have had this week has been spent working on my ICQC class tasks. These fabulous classes are offered online by Kathy Shaw and are just fantastic! I have learnt so much.... thank you Kathy!! This week I have added a wisteria vine to one of the backgrounds I showed you for the ICQC 107 Class. This was a lot of fun to stitch and I am pleased with the finished wisteria. Moving on from the trees in the ICQC 103 Class, I have now completed several other surface embroidery motifs which include a design which is a very traditional crazy quilt motif, the spider web and spider. I was delighted with the result and since then I have also stitched a vintage surface embroidery design of a basket of flowers...... Created an expanded surface embroidery design where I started with a very simple outline design of a watering can and added my own embroidery embellishments to expand the design resulting in a little 'picture'. Lastly, I tried my hand at a different technique called 'Broderie Perse' where a printed fabric design is cut, appliqued and then hand embellished with embroidery. I really loved making this flower and I was very pleased with the outcome. I have to go and pick my little dog Poppy up from a second round of surgery on her leg later this morning (the first operation was unsuccessful) so I am not sure how much sewing will get done the next few days but, I am looking forward to learning lots more crazy quilt techniques! Have a lovely weekend.
