Advance for Needle Turning

I'm floating some shapes and will needle turn applique to do that. Sharon Stroud, a fabulous teacher, showed me the method of basting (she did it by hand stitching) away from the edge to secure the two fabrics. I'll then run my stitch as I poke the turn under, and sew in place.

Side Bar


Yesterday's task was to photograph and document a work that will be submitted to a juried show. They ask for a full image, naturally, and occasionally, a detail shot. I think the detail image should show the quilting and the array of printing techniques. But more importantly, it be a strong composition on its own.
