5 days gone and I have 2 quilts ready for the Quiltwest exhibition! Today I needle felted the backing fabric onto the front of the piece. As I'm incapable of cutting a straight line the corners were hacked into curves and finished off by needle felting on some more white swirls.
The fish were fused on and then stitched.
The octopus was stitched down with lots of free motion stitch in variegated and metallic threads.
Lastly the silk paper barnacles were attached with stitch in a similar coloured thread.
The forms are in! Come along and see the quilts in May at The Quilt and Craft Fair, Perth Exhibition Centre.
