I love this little peek into the creative process of crazy-quilter Gerry Krueger (olderrose). She says,
When is a seam not a seam? When it is a little garden. I had this tiny yellow hanky lace that I want to use, and thought I I’d incorporate the delicate part where the lace was attached to the linen. But after looking at it for several days, I just wasn’t inspired; so I took the lace off and reattached it flush to the velvet ribbon. Then I did some random stem and leaves to cover the ribbon. The next step was to add a piece of my favorite lattice lace…Next a few beads here and there and my so-so seam turned into a tiny garden.
What a beautiful result! See more of Gerry’s work on her blog.
