CQ Detail 62

DateSaturday, July 18, 2009 at 7:00AM | AuthorSharon B | Comment1 Comment | in

Stitches:

This seam is embellished with a variation of feather stitch. A seed bead is at the end of each ‘arm’

Thread:

DMC perle thread #8. 

Placement and Foundation Fabric: 

This line of stitching runs down the middle of  piece 3 on the diagram in the post written to introduce block 9. In the same article I also talked about the foundation fabrics I used. 

The back story

This crazy quilt block is part of my “I dropped the Button box” quilt. I am documenting this crazy quilt detail by detail, every second day. You will find information about this series of articles and the quilt here  and all articles in the series are categorised under Crazy Quilt  details
