Having noticed that the sellotape used on gold wrapping paper picked up the gold colour, I decided to use this in a plastic quiltlet. The bits of gold tape are covered with a sheer layer of fabric, and the wadding is bubble wrap. The back is plastic, and it machined just fine. The stars are added by hand. Whoever wins this "
little gem" is in for a surprise!
Because the back is plastic, I added the label into the binding - and will be using this method in future!
The BQL challenge this month is trapunto - I was aiming for feathers but got these strange leaves instead -
And the spirals, though nice and puffy, are a teeny bit boring ... and odd ...
Some hand embroidery might improve this one?
Love the plastic one!
ReplyDeleteThe spirals look a little like shells. Maybe you could add some more seashore type items??
