Mother with child

Another stained window work. This is like an applique design with the use of a quarter inch biased tape. The border is machine embroidered. (Design from embroidery library) The fun is here to find the right fabrics.

Gorgeous! Is the black bias hand stitched down or is it an iron on bias...or did you machine stitch it in place? I love the stained glass look in quilts!

I machined stitched it on. Should have done it by hand but I struggle to hold the needle at the moment.

This is amazing. I know the border is from emblirary,but how about the main theme? Is this a quilt and what is the technique. It is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

It is a wall hanging. I had a photo of a stained glass window, traced it on the background and then tagged the fabric pieces on it. The seams are covered with biased binding. The most difficult part is finding the right fabric, followed by making sure that all areas are covered with the biased bindings. Fun though!

Great work and well done because not easy to use biased tape except when it is a sticking one. Thank you for sharing. Amitiés de France.

Beautiful! Your chosen fabrics make it look like stained glass. I use a super thin line of school glue (washable Elmer's) that is applied, and then you iron over it quickly to dry it- when I do the second side of applying bias tape/binding on my wall hangings and quilts.
