CRAZY QUILTING

More crazy quilting today.  This is another section of my medium dusty crazy quilt.  On the left is some lace which I dyed then highlighted areas with beads.  I started the seam treatment on the right with two rows of running stitch in a pale pink size 8 perle cotton.  I then laced this with pink ribbon floss.  Once this was complete I added pistil stitches on the bottom and two chain stitches on the top.  In the upper right I stitched a branch using chain stitches in a rayon thread.  The buds are French knots stitched loosely to give the appearance of tiny buds in silk ribbon.  I love the background green embroidered fabric – lovely!  That’s it for this week – see you Monday.
