Rose Arch

Sorry I'm so late in submitting this, but I've finally finished my quilt!

I was inspired by the wedding invitations, where the couple is surrounded by a door of roses, full of happiness and sweetness.

The pattern was drawn with oil-based pen and embossed on cotton, and the roses were knitted with fabric.But I don't think I've got the desired feeling of the roses this time, I may need to test it more, since it's been delayed for too long, so I'll leave it like this for now!

ROSE IS A ROSE IS A ROSE

Sorry everyone, late again!  This has been a double challenge in that, although the technique is what I had in mind, I didn't have the time to do the screen printing.  But...I found a pile of fabrics with exactly the screen I wanted to use, plus of co-ordinating fabrics using various tie-dyeing techniques.  I have no idea when I did these but I must have enjoyed myself as there are so many.  So the second challenge was to create something with what I had.

All the fabrics are cotton and hand dyed or screen printed from a thermofax screen I had made from a photo I took of a rose in my garden.  It has an iron-on wadding (I had a sample the right size and was interested in how it would work - OK).  The roses are raw-edge applique fused on with Heat-n-Bond Ultra.  It has a bound edge and measures 41.5 x 50.5 cm.

Thanks Momo - nice to use up some of the stash.

BLOOMING ROSE'S

 My title is a bit of a pun as what should have been straight forward was not.  I was all ready to go yesterday morning, however, fresh eyes and a photo and I realized it looked unfinished. Unfortunately yesterday was already planned so it had to wait until this morning. My apologies but here it is hot off the press.

I have now corded the stems and added more quilting. Applique and quilting on a whole cloth. I now have a slightly wavy border which hopefully will settle but will not be flat in the end. I can live with it. 

 

Sorry for the delay~~

I'm really sorry.
