I spent time today working on my swap piece (nameless as yet). This time I am writing down my steps as I do them so I don't have to rely on memory to create similar effects the next time I want to use them.
Thread painted details on petals using Madeira Rayon embroidery thread
Machine trapunto over 2 layers of Quilter's Dream Request batting
Needle felted stems and flower centres using merino roving
The next step will be to stitch the background with a variety of threads, both to achieve a flatter effect that will "pop" the flowers even more.
