The lady top done

I am really happy with this piece. This is a scrappy art quilt, no new fabric at all for her, all from my stash and my scraps bin. I had her in my mind for a long time and I am happy I got around to make her. I saw that stained glass free pattern on Pinterest, she can be found here

I modified her to suite my taste and easier to appliqué. For the longest time, I imagined her in front of the window but I made a few background and it was just not working. The wisterias idea came of nowhere and I knew it was what I needed.

She was my November goal at "a year of lovely finish" so I am happy to be done for the top. Next step is thread painting and quilting.

    Elle est magnifique! Et quelle bonne idée d'avoir ajouté ces fleurs et ces deux papillons. J'ai vraiment hâte de voir ce que vous allez faire avec le fil. :-)

      J'avais peur que les papillons soient un peu "too much"
      Merci beaucoup

    That is an amazing piece. Very different from anything that I do. I look intrigued to see thread painting.

    I followed your link from the FB group we just joined. I will also be following your blog directly so I won't miss any of your creativity.

    Merry Christmas.
