Thanks, Pat |
Oh my gosh k3n... You are so talented!
|
This technique would really lend itself beautifully to some Australian native plants such as the Hakea, Callistemon (bottlebrush) and the flowering gum.
NO NO NO I must not start another project NOOOOOOOO:p |
This is soooooooooooooo pretty and I read your block (very helpful). I really enjoy seeing this technique and might have to try it soon! Thanks for posting.
|
I grow these in my garden. Planted some new bulbs for more of them this fall but the squirrels keep digging them up We'll see where they bloom next spring...surely not where I planted them..Our squirrels are pretty adventuous gardeners.
|
Simply stunning
|
Beautiful!!!
|
I love this!!! thanks for the details on your blog!!! This seems like a fun project for those scraps that are really small but too pretty to toss.
|
Gorgeous, just gorgeous!

That is awesome. Would like to try it one day.
|
Wow excellent rendition!
|
WOW! That is really beautiful!
|
Gorgeous! What a fun and unique quilt :) :) :)
|
What a beautiful piece! Love how you put this together....looks very delicate. Thanks so much for sharing with us.
|
This is truly beautiful! I am wanting to do something with confetti also, looks like it would be so much fun!
|
Stunning, you really captured the picture. Thanks for sharing your technique, on my to do list, for sure!
I just repainted my bathroom mint green and will be using lavender as accent, this is a perfect quilt for the wall, and you have me thinking, maybe the shower curtain! |
Thank you! I will be posting a full step by step tute on my blog in the next couple of weeks for the box.
PS if I get round to doing the thistle (I posted a photo above,) perhaps I'll remember to take step by step pics of that too! And I'd love too see what you come up with for your bathroom Peg!

That is so cool. I love art quilts. Let's face it I love all quilts. But it is quilts like yours that are so full of imagination. I love the way you have the quilting actually be thread painting, and of course you didn't start with a solid background which just adds more texture along with the great texture of those pebbles. I am just delighted with your piece of art.
|
That is so cool!
|
absolutely beautiful
|
Incredible! What a surprise it is what thread can do! You've very talented!
|
It's very pretty.
|
Wow, what a striking quilt! It sounds like a fun quilt to make. I'll have to check out your blog. Thanks.
|
i've never done anything in confetti - never saved bits that small and probably won't - but that's lovely. it really captures an allium. what's really nice is that the netting is invisible and the fabric appears to be hanging there. nice lesson on your blog, too. i'm glad i'm following. i want to see if this ends up in your next show.
|
That is so beautiful ! Thank you for the directions in your blog. I will try some version of this.
|
very pretty
|
Very nice and the instructions are very good. Will give it a try after Christmas
|
Ooh, very artsy & pretty! Now, what do you do with it? Do you plan a wall piece with more blocks?
|
AWESOME! I love to see things that are different had not seen this before great job.
|
Beautiful and so sparkley!
|
Beautiful quilt and your directions are quite good.
Cheers, K |
I'm inspired :)
|
Hi might take up your offer of the tutorial as you make it sound fairly easy to do but the effect is superb
