I'm on a roll!
I have finished another Faerie
this one is the Guelder rose Faeries
I surrounded them with birds and other critters and a magic keyhole for their part of the secret garden
I have used a little more SRE on this piece I am challenging myself to use it.
like with the pre-made sew on motifs and roses it almost feels like cheating because it takes up so much real-estate and is relatively easy to accomplish
as those of you who follow me regularly I LOVE seam treatments but they do take up a lot of time to do
and this series of blocks is to challenge myself to use techniques and motifs I would not normally use
and balance it all in context of the rather delicate drawings of Cicely Mary Barker’s Flower faeries and the magic of a secret garden
Snail is super cute!
ReplyDeleteSRE is gorgeous. It's only quick and easy for you because you've mastered it already. It's still a hot mess more often than not when I try! SRE is all about the finesse. :)
Nice block! Love this series.
what a nice block. I love the idea to use all sort of things on a stitch work.
ReplyDeleteThose birds are beautiful and I LOVE that bitty snail.
