Quilted Landscape

 11.5"x 13.5" Quilted Landscape








This was a bunch of firsts for me.
My first attempt at:
  • creating a scene in cloth (collage)
  • quilting
  • sewing with no foot on my sewing machine
  • those fancy embroidery stitches
  • "matting and framing" with no actual mat or frame
I had some trouble getting the thread tension right while doing the free motion machine quilting. It improved as I worked down. Guess I should have started with the hills and worked my way up. Oh well. Live and learn.

I had fun doing it and I think it turned out pretty well. What do you think?
