working wednesday
I have been playing with a few more small stitched seascapes.
Trying to decide if I like a dark border...
...or a light border.
I have also been experimenting with some different fabric borders. This one using the sewing machine...
...this one using the needle felter/embellisher.
Still not sure where I am going with these.......more photos here.
omg Deb, I'm gobsmacked by that second to last one. Is it for sale?
ReplyDeleteThey are gorgeous, Deborah! I particulary love the last one!
ReplyDeleteThey are all beautiful! The last one is my favorite, too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!! I love the first one, with the dark border, and also the last one with the seaguls....but they're all lovely! I think all of the borders are effective, perhaps decide what suits each one based on its colours etc? :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful grouping! I especially like the addition of the borders.
ReplyDeleteThese are so lovely, I especially like the one with the needle felted/ embellished border :)
ReplyDeleteThe colours in all of them are wonderful. It's the texture of the rocks and felting and detail in the last one that makes it come alive for me.

ReplyDeleteThey are all wonderful! I am especially taken with the one with the light border and also with the last one. Everytime I see something someone created with an embellisher, it makes me want one to play with myself.
ReplyDeleteI like the first and second ones the most. I look forward to seeing where you go with them too.
ReplyDeletethese are all stunning especially the second to last one! beautiful work and so inspiring too! do you hand quilt these ? x
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment on my blog Deborah and for following too :) I was at Fashion, Embroidery and Stitch/ Sewing for Pleasure yesterday and saw one of your large quilts there, it was lovely :)
ReplyDeleteThey are wonderful !!! Did you ever consider to have prints made of them? I guess you could sell those like crazy!
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing. I'm partial to blues, so I love the clouded sky images in your flickr stream.
ReplyDeleteHow are you doing the stitching, by hand or on your machine? I ask because I embroider too, and I can't figure out how you get some of your effects!
