I finally had a brainwave for the spot in the upper lefthand corner – a sugar and creamer! I worked on it for about a week and am pleased with the results. The lid of the sugar bowl doesn’t quite show up as much as I wanted, so I may add a little line of embroidery under the lip of the lid. We’ll see.
The two pictures (above and below) look the same, but I have moved the frothy drink and am trying to decide where to put it. I am redoing that particular block as we speak, so the plaid will not be part of the final work.
I wonder if adding a spoon to the sugar bowl would help mark the lid-line….
Hhmm. I thought of that, too, after I had finished the satin stitching. I’ll have to think about whether I want to undo some stitching and do it over. It might be the right thing, though.
I love the quilt and like the frothy drink on the left.
Hi Dena,
Thanks for checking out the quilt! I am changing the background of the frothy drink to get rid of the plaid, but the frothy drink gets to stay!
