It's been a while since I posted about this particular quilt! Here are links to part 1, part 2, and part 3. Today's journey is all about the vase the flowers wit in. I started out with a piece of paper to help me gauge how big I wanted the pot to be.
I then laid the paper on the quilt to see if it would be a good scale. I was happy with it.
I was debating a lot about what fabric and/or how to decorate the pot and I was sitting and debating this. Then my son says, "Mom! Why don't you use the black burnout fabric?" Duh. He was so right. It's taffeta with a nice burnout on it and it adds something of interest to the pot without taking away from the flowers themselves.
Gotta love my foot in the photo.
Read for layering!

Your son certainly has a good eye for design. The black burnout fabric is perfect.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Gene, your son has a good eye. I really like this piece!
