I think the fact that you added all the quilting to the petals will be fine; my potholders are much the same and they've been washed and have come out just fine. :-)Sandra Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17737049269550479188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339722470418175310.post-8350790145216004672016-08-21T08:39:53.368-04:002016-08-21T08:39:53.368-04:00A fabulous finish!

I've had Lara's book on my sewing table for a while now -- it's time to give her technique a try myself!<br /><br />Quick question: If you had used just one layer for the petals, do you think the treated fabric would still be too stiff for a throw quilt?

I have yet to start a modern quilt guild in my small town - it just seems like another thing to do and my life is so darn busy. But thinking that we could have the guild the way we want it to be sounds really fun. AnywayI bought Lara's book and have wanted to try something with it too. This is really great and motivates me to start designing my own appliqué piece.the zen quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05109269989556411207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339722470418175310.post-12247263948906872682016-08-20T07:05:34.158-04:002016-08-20T07:05:34.158-04:00What a great design, Cheryl!

I have an idea percolating for some simple window treatments, and I want to incorporate Lara's technique. Your post will help me make some decisions. I do wonder though, whether the quilt would look as striking if you had done the quilting all over before applying the petals. I like the contrast between the background and your quilting on the petals.

That little bit of color really works well. I keep hearing about this book by Lara but since I'm not a huge fan of appliqué I'm not sure that it will be worth it for me. I've usually just used the technique of painting liquid spray starch on my pieces with the help of freezer paper and that's worked well for me.

The white binding frames it really nicely, too. What a bummer that the color faded so much; but at least you caught it before you were on the way to the meeting. Fast finishes can be so fun and satisfying. :)Yvonne from Quilting Jetgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15705160384198590025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339722470418175310.post-57857549796587460222016-08-19T09:43:49.910-04:002016-08-19T09:43:49.910-04:00It turned out to be an eye catching little piece! ...It turned out to be an eye catching little piece!
