As I showed here, a friend asked me to quilt this beautiful embroidered top. She had no request and custom work on this, I admittedly, am too inexperienced to attempt.
Taking pictures of this one proved to be difficult. I didn't want to take it outside, because it's all white and not mine. (smiles) The pictures don't do it justice...but I do know it's truly going to beautify any room it ends up it.
I'm pleased with the all over design of ivy and little birds. Ivy is always a wonderful accent to my own rose gardens and well, who can resist a little bird amongst a garden of roses.
With smiles,
Val:)
Looks great Val! That panto was a perfect choice...I love the birds peaking out among the flowers.
ReplyDeleteThanks Cynthia! That means so much to me...as I truly admire your work! Thank you for your kind support!
DeleteAbsolutely beautiful work! I'm sure she is thrilled with the results of your love.
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful, Val. I love the softness the rounded quilting gave the quilt.
ReplyDeleteI agree Mel, it's beautiful-I love the rounded curves too
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect panto for that dainty quilt. Such a sweet finish!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt and the quilting adds even lovely softness!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful! Looks like the embroidery was colored with crayons or paints too. She will love the quilting you did on this quilt.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your continued kind words and support everyone! I see all the custom work so many do and am in awe. Having just begun long-arm quilting two years ago and quilting about five years ago...I'm pleased with my progress and LOVE everything quilting has brought into my life...including your friendships!
ReplyDeleteI think you quilting has a lovely, soft, flowing effect, that compiments the embroidery nicely. Well done, it looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWhat an honor to quilt such a beautiful quilt. You did it up well!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful work. You both did a lovely job--embroidering and quilting.
ReplyDeleteVal I was I think the quilt turned out beautiful, thank you for such a great job I am looking forward to showing it to my mom and friends, thanks again to Victoria for bringing my work to you I am ever indebted to you both. Dawn
ReplyDeleteUgh, Dawn thank you and you are so very welcome!!! It truly looks absolutely gorgeous in person! Your embroidery work is just spectacular. It was my privilege to quilt this for you.
DeleteWhat a stunnig finish to this beauty. It looks like broderie, something I have been wanting to try. So pretty!
ReplyDeleteOh, so delicately beautiful! The quilting embellishes it very nicely, really complements the stitchery. Now in addition to looking for vintage pieced tops to quilt, I want to find a vintage embroidery one to do too!
ReplyDeleteAmazing! I can't Imagine the hours put in to this beauty. She must love her needle:)
