Just after Christmas I decided some embroidery would be nice to have handy for evening work.
I went online and googled "snowglobe images" and this appeared.
I traced it onto some really cute fabric and got started with enthusiasm!! Well, that last about 2 weeks. There was a lot of stitching for arthritic fingers.
I got annoyed with myself for procrastinating and brought it out to the living room for a few nights and finished it.
It measures 19 x 21 and I had a pantograph and the thread in mind. It will be a little wall hanging for some room next winter.
Here you go.....that pantograph. It isn't dense, just enough to quilt it.
Which thread? What did I choose?
It took longer to load than to stitch out. My machine is just purring after giving me angst the other day. A new needle cured it. Oh, the grey thread won!! It faded into the fabric beautiful and didn't take over.
Always decisions when you long arm quilt.
