(same beach as the feathers)
This was my first experiment of wire wrapping rocks with instructions from the website listed in Friday Favorites. I need to get better but I like the effect! If you are wondering, the edging is a really cool very thin copper wire ribbon. I wish I had bought more of it! I still need to design a copper hanger for the piece.

Sunny Day
(Here is was before I added some finishing touches)
My local Walmart had a bag of odds and ends of silk flowers--you know, the ones that had come detached from the sprays of flowers. The whole bag only cost $1.00. My kind of bargain. This is my first incorporation of some of the flowers into a quilted piece.

How heavy is the rock piece? I'm curious to see what you'll come up with to hang it, I imagine it's a little heavier than a "normal" quilted hanging. It's really simple, and really cute, I'm sure someone will want to buy it.
ReplyDeleteAnother question, this time about the Sunny Day piece--did you quilt it with metallic threads? The pink, green & yellow threads all give off a shimmer, very nice!
ReplyDeleteBoth pieces are so unique! I love the idea of wrapping and attaching the rocks.
