Forty-Six - the Flimsy



And then, 
after all of the machine appliqué was completed,
 there was a flimsy on the design wall.

(no fusible was used - 
just lots of pins to hold the shapes in place)




I'm very pleased with the string pieced tulips
and the way they sway back and forth.




Their consistent stems
and pairs of scrappy leaves make me happy.

The top finished at approximately 48" x 60"

Quilting will happen later this year.

The turquoise blues and deep magentas, contrasted with the gentle yellows is so wholesome, so solid, so timeless, and so comforting. Lovely, lovely palette of colors. Five gold stars!

Of course they make you happy! They are simply lovely. I'm with Sharon on this one: those colors are fabulous together.

A stunning result! At first I thought you'd abandoned the strings, but then realised you'd subtly made string tulips. Original! A lovely result.
