Finishing a Free Motion Landscape


This is just a detail of the free motion landscape that I started last week.  The church on the horizon has turned out just as I wanted, although perhaps a tiny bit crooked.  In the next couple of days I shall be trimming down the whole piece to 12 x 12 inches, doing the binding and a bit of hand stitched detail to finish it off.  It is the hand stitching that is worrying me the most, especially because the landscape is so densely quilted that it now feels like cardboard. Wish me luck!

  2. That's beautiful! I love the foreground as much as the church. Can't wait to see the whole piece. Got a good laugh about your cardboard comment. I can totally relate.
