Make a Wish!

Make a wish 

A beautiful appliqued picture  made from a combination of applique,  and freemotion machine embroidery. I have
made the background from various layered cottons and linens, and then appliqued
and free motion embroidered the flowers and leaves…….effectively painting
with your sewing machine. The background is totally unique…… no two
pictures are the same. The girl is sitting on a bench with her face to the
sunshine, just enjoying the moment! The overall palette is very pretty with
pastel shades of green,  pink and cream.
The text message is simple….. Make a Wish! printed to calico and then
stitched.

 The finished piece measures 30 x 30cm with the inner mount
in antique white and measuring 15cm x 15cm. It comes ready framed with a white
driftwood wooden frame, ready to hang on a wall. As this piece is created by
freemotion embroidery and applique, the odd frayed edge is deliberate and adds
to the quirkiness.
