Quilt Square for Laura

Yes, that’s right. It’s finally finished. I am really happy dancing right now! I was so afraid that with my lack of stitching time for the past few weeks that I would never get it done in time to meet the deadline, which would have been tragic. So, without further ado, here is my addition to the quilt for Laura, a cameo of Mirabilia’s Titania fairy:


Square for Laura's Quilt

We were instructed not to use beads, so I substituted pearl (032) Kreinik braid for the beads and it just doesn’t stand out, unfortunately. I also don’t like how my name came out – it’s too large, but it’s all I had charted (from another project) at the moment. It seems like an eyesore on such a delicate piece. However, I really don’t have/shouldn’t spend the time to fix it, so it will just have to be what it is.

    Congratulations a lovely finish, Jenna! She is very pretty. I don’t know what else you could have done to substitute the beads, but it does subdue the piece – which isn’t a bad thing. Nice work!
