Free Motion Rudbeckias and Blackcurrants

Work is ticking ahead on the new project.  The basic idea is to do panels with two colours, divided by a thin strip using up small scrap oddments.  It was fun reworking the rudbeckias design on yellow - all very sunny and summery.

As for the burgundy red, the colour suggested blackcurrants, so that's what I did.  The leaves are fancier than the real thing, but the sprigs of fruit are fairly accurate.  I have spent so many hours in my time with my head stuffed in a blackcurrant bush that I didn't need to to look at pictures or draw a sketch.  The fruit just grew out of the machine as I sewed.  Fab fun.
