Quilt no 44


Clematis
My quilt 'clematis' is based on a painting I did in 2004 of a clematis growing in our garden. I used 100 % cotton throughout including the wadding. The petals and leaves are appliquéd to the background using chain and buttonhole stitch and the stem is created using Portuguese knotted stem stitch. Beads are used for the stamens.
