0 to Quilt in 5 Days - T Minus 1


The octopus quilt has come on quite a bit today as you can see above but nothing is stitched down yet. First I added some more colour into the boarder with wool fibres and the needle felting machine. Here is the first layer.


And then more detail with some white wool swirls.



The background was then quilted on top using a swirling free motion pattern.



It's difficult to see in the photograph. Here's the back.



Tomorrow I have to trim the boarder to size and get all the motifs sewn down.
