In keeping with the central square that has appliqued grapes and embroidered berries on it, I decided to add some applique and embroidery on a few of the squares that will soon be stripped together to make this top. Here is what I did. I'm very pleased with the results:
I think it adds a lot to what would have been a very plain bowtie square!
I decided to make it look like the grapes and berries were being seen through the window on this Cathedral Window square.
Just a few blackberries on this one.
This photo got flipped sideways, and isn't in focus, but this is the fourth square onto which I added the embellishments.
And for reference here is that center square again...
Now, to strip this and make it a complete top!
Oh, this is going to look so nice once it is all together!
ReplyDeleteIt's gonna be a keeper for sure. Have to tell you something, marie. (I can do that, I'm her mother) hehe. That is the Attic Window pattern, not cathedral window. I know you knew that but sometimes our brains go in one direction when we need for it to go in another. Love you
ReplyDeleteOoops...you're right! I just wasn't thinking!
ReplyDeleteThis will be wonderful when you get it done :-) Very creative!
