Another section of Block #11 in my current CRAZY QUILTING project. Prior to sourcing my narrow rayon ric rac, I purchased a wider one that I found in a quilting store. I started by laying this over the seam followed by stitching in place using a size 8 perle cotton in a solid green zig zag chain stitch. I have had some of the sequin leaves in my stash for years but they were a bit too bold for any of my other projects. BUT, they worked great here stitched with a green rayon.
I duplicated the zig zag chain on the left. Once I completed these seams, I felt there was a bit too much open space so have added a bow with a small butterfly charm. I use hand dyed seam binding for the bow.
The half pinwheels were stitched using a rayon, some petite very velvet and some small flower sequins.
If you missed the last post of my Black Butterflies project you can find it HERE and a second one HERE. That’s it for now. Final reveal of Block #11 next time.
