\"Garden<\/a>
Garden front<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I said previously<\/a> that I thought this piece was finished. I took it out on Friday in order to decide for sure and decided to put a facing on it and prepare the piece for finishing. The photo, left, shows the front with the facing applied by machine. I am sad that some of the edge detail was lost in the seam allowance. I’ll have to remember to plan better next time.<\/p>\n

This piece didn’t need as much beading as the others I have done. I am not sure why. Laziness might be a factor, but the riot of color and fabric definitely draws attention to the elements of this piece. I don’t think it needs much detail to draw the viewer in.<\/p>\n

I am a little sad about these small pieces. I really don’t have anywhere to display them, but would really like to have wally large enough to hang all of them.<\/p>\n

\"Garden<\/a>
Garden back<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I am particularly fond of the back. I used different colors to quilt and intended to cover up the back with a fake, but it looks so nice that I could barely stand to cover the edges with the facing.<\/p>\n

Now I need to stitch down the facing and make the sleeve. I have a lot of cards to write for Christmas, so I don’t know if I will be able to finish this before the end of the year, but that is definitely my goal.<\/p>\n

Now I feel like I can work on some of the other smaller pieces on the 26 Projects List<\/a>. Perhaps I will do a blog post about each one as well?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
