Quilting: applique angel
30 kudoz

applique angel

Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Other

Style: Whimsical, Cute


Materials

Cotton fabric.

What was your inspiration?

My studio curtains. I had leftovers and wanted to have a guardian in my room to keep an eye my stashes of fabric/yarn/paper & all the forgotten items languishing in the closet~

What are you most proud of?

That she matches my curtains. Also, the addition of the satin roses around her skirt hem

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Use traditional black thread to sew on the applique. It would make it pop. I used matching thread and she lacks definition

I've never seen a green angel before - now I think ALL angels should wear green! I had to smile when I read your remark about having her stand guard over your stash! We could all do with one like her.

This is so sweet. I love the satin roses, too.
