Happy Quilting Group Project--Sisters Wall Hanging
Posted on: 10/29/2004
This wall hanging is done by hand applique and quilting that took me almost a month to finish it. I haven't sumbitted any project for quite sometime already, about 3 months, that made me start to worry of get kicking out from the group. This is my first time to make a wall hanging. I'm still not quite satify with it yet. If I had more time then I prefer to add more hand quilting in the border but it's almost at the deadline soon so I've given it up. This is also my attempt to try ribbon embroidery. It's actually not so difficult as I expect but the silk ribbons are really a little expensive. I will try practice more once I have got a silk ribbon embroidery book by a Japanese author which Cowy help me to buy it earlier.
| About me |
| In year 2001, I discovered that |
| there was a quilting TV Show |
| called "Simply Quilt" in HGTV |
| channel that inspired me to start |
| quilting. |
| It was not so easy in the process |
| of self learning but later I |
| discovered a magazine called |
| "Quiltmaker" which has a lot of |
| patterns that I can use from it. |
| At the year end of 2003, I |
| started to self-learning Chinese |
| typing then I discovered from |
| the internet that there was a |
| Taiwan quilting group called |
| "Happy Quilting Group" which |
| was organized by a lady |
| named May. |
| After joining the group then I |
| have made some small projects |
| i.e. cup, doll and tool bag etc. |
