Watercolored Quilt Finished.

Here's a quilt that I started in 

January of 2017

*******So Today *******

I'm celebrating finally getting it done :)

*******

The reason it sat in a drawer for so long

is because I was trying to find more

of this blue floral print for the boarder.

Then I finally decided to use polka dot instead,

and get it done :)

This is the label before stitching it on.

 After I purchased my fabric paints

I made this little chart.

It serves as a great reference.

First I drew my designs onto white paper. 

Then put them on my light box and

penciled them onto my white fabric.

Next I took them to the sewing machine and 

used black thread to free motion 

them onto the fabric before painting.

Then I free motion quilted each block.

 Playing with the paint first

helped me to figure out how to make

them look like watercolors :) 

 This is one that I ended up not using.

I'm sure it will end up as a pillow

someday or a piece in a scrappy quilt.

 I thought you might like to see some of

the blocks up close. 

******* That's it!*******

 I hope you enjoyed your visit.
