I've enjoyed doing this project… It's was a little fiddly to get all the green images in place, but it looks quite realistic now that it's finished.
And the background is growing on me.
I mentioned I had difficulty with the purple fabric… however I think I've managed to disguise the white halo with purple Tsukineko ink by gently illustrating the edges of the applique piece after it was appliquilted.
I didn't want to quilt the buds too much because I wanted them to stand out a little… they are quilted around the edge of the applique and just a little t define the petals.
I've used 50 weight Masterpiece cotton, the rest of the quilt is 100% cotton.
I did illustrate a little, but quite minimally… I used fabric pens and inktense pencils.
It's already in the bag ready to leave.

What an interesting effect your quilting has on the background fabric. It’s hard to believe its the same fabric.

It is, isn’t it… I quilted vertically to follow the lines of the flower… and it has added a lot of interest to the background…
I’m so surprised that Tilly was able to draw a picture similar to the photo and the quilt…!!! I’m keeping it to add to the exhibition.
