I'm back in Brisbane so no more travel envy Diane- or at least for a while! This piece languished on my design wall for some time waiting for an edge finish. It is small- approximately 14" long x 15" wide so I decided a stitched edge would be fine.I use the walking foot to do this with a zigzag stitch of width 3 & length .4 or .5. It's a little more open than satin stitch.
The hand stitched on light panel is mono printed & the whole piece is free machine quilted. I like to paint into some areas after the stitching to bring out the design.
