Image Transfer

This is one of my City & Guilds pieces but I thought I would share it as I am quite pleased with it. However I have really struggled to get a good photo of it so it does look better in real life.
I printed Jonathan's photo in black and white onto some lightweight vilene. I backed this with white cotton and then stitched the coloured lines using my twin needle with red in one and orange in the other.

I then layered it with wadding and backing and quilted it with a silver metallic thread.

All the Best,

I love your twin needle stitching on this one Janet - it fits in so well with the photo.

Oh Janet, I do like this very much, it's so effective!! Just that dash of colour really makes it. Well done, again!!
