Inspiration...from a magazine article featuring embroidery with piecing then quilted. I don't embroider, but someday would love to have the time to learn and do so. Instead, I thought well, what can I do...so I used a varigated multi-colored thread and stitched out the garden fairy followed by the patchwork, added some borders and quilted some designs....still practicing my borders as you can see {used a solid very pale green backing}, but I love the colors and it was fun creating, love quick finishes since time is always short. Have a great week sewing!

just lovely and delightful!
what magazine had the article? I have been trying to get the nerve up to incorporate embroidery with piecework, but haven't gotten there yet...
any help is appreciated!
