Working Wednesday

I made this a few years ago using up lots of scraps.

The flowers were added for interest but I was not happy with them and thought they could be improved by adding some sparkly paint.

I was wrong.

I show this when I give a fabric painting workshop, and I always say that I am going to add some stitching to try and improve the flowers.

I have been looking for some hand stitching to do in the evenings and so this is it.

One flower down, eleven to go. That means I put twelve flowers on this quilt which is a big design No No.

I am usually aware of putting odd not even numbers on things.

Looking at the first photo now I am not sure why I didn't just leave well alone! I do remember that the flowers had a 'bumpiness' that does not show up here. I do seem to make work for myself though. Is anyone else like this?
