In My Garden

Bobbie Etchell

Machine pieced & machine quilted. I love springtime and the “birth” every year of my garden, I enjoy looking at this quilt in the dead of winter, when everything is covered in snow, to remind me of the many flowers and butterflies that grace my garden before winter arrives.

Tranquility

Hand needle felted, hand quilted, wet felted. The felted center piece (the backing was wet felted and then the detail added with needle felting) was completed in a Dimensional Felting class taught by Lela Luetgar at the Midwest Fiber & the Internet. I hand quilted the border to enhance the felting and make it pop.
