Return of the Prodigal Daughter - Me

Get out your fatted calf, I'm back.

I've been sad for a long time. Reading helped to hide, and napping too much. But now I've given myself permission to do what I want. Forget some stuff and glory in some other stuff and move on.

I don't like the quilt I'm working on for H2H... caused me to not touch fabric in months. So I decided to work on a few smalls that I've wanted to try for years. Here's one that was inspired by Monika KW  at My Sweet Prairie Studio - Love her work.  Sorry the pics are so blurry.

 Machine embroidery on top of fabrics for a landscape look. I'm thinking of a few "flowers" embroidered in the lower right.  What do you think?

And of course, this is paper piecing. Making a Cosmos from the Pieced Flowers book by Ruth B. McDowell.  I upped the size on my printer and used the straight seam design... but it's not quite a paper piecing design. I've had to change some of the seam lines to paper piece.
 
Hope you all are doing well, and thanks for stopping in to see my stuff.
 
Hugs,
Terri
