Nature's gift card: rejuvenation







This is "Nature's gift card: rejuvenation". I did it for a contest but only 60 quilts were picked out of 400 so I don't feel too bad. The Grandmother's flower garden pattern on the left side of the quilt is made out of plastic gift cards from the supermarket. The sunflower is beaded and has tulle in the center. I quilted it from the back side using colored threads and black thread in the bobbin so that the color wouldn't distract from the design on the front. There is black netting across the front that the Sunflower is trying to push it's way through.
I haven't figured out how to get my pictures to be added below my writing so all the close ups are shown above the quilt. Sorry about that!
