ready for bloom

Everything is done for the bloom show and here is a preview as promised. The nandina pillows have both a contemporary and traditional feel, I think.

Smokebush leaf clusters are randomly arranged on this pieced and quilted wall hanging.

I love the playfulness of the fiddlehead prints. The ginkgo wall hanging is printed on vintage French linen from the 1920s - there are still some minor rust spots in a few places - the fabric is so beautiful - dense and lustrous.

The bags are very different from anything I've done before. For this special flowery occasion they are perfect. For more information about the bloom show visit the barn swallow.
