BACKGROUND QUILTING

 The indigo piece I've been working on moved one step closer to the finished concept I envisioned.  It was tense there for awhile.....after machine stitching weed motifs, the batik fabric was so distorted I feared it would be a total failure.

Hummm, it had been spray starched, stabilized, stitched using a walking foot, very carefully stitched I might add....but still it was a mess.  After setting it aside for a few days I wondered if it could be tamed with quilting.  To my astonishment, it worked.

Onward....stay tuned....
