So I've been experimenting with more free motion
thread painting on my sewing machine,
this time I made these cypress trees for
the landscape quilt below.
If you want to see my technique, you can
read how I made them and see some other trees
I made here. I'm looking forward to making
leaves, flowers and a whole lot more with
this technique in the future.

This is the quilt before photo

and here is is the quilt after I sewed down the
cypress trees and added some grass
and flowers around the house
and surroundings.
And here is a close up view.
I am happy with the way this turned out and
hope Suze the creator/owner will be pleased with it.
I didn't exactly meet the deadline for this one
as I wasn't feeling very creative.
First my sewing machine went in to be serviced
and came back with the tension off. Then you
could say I lost my Mojo for creative projects.
Now I can send this one on for the final round.
I hope to share photo's of all four landscape quilts
in February when they are complete.
Thanks for stopping by
and hope you have a creative day!

Wow Kim, those turned out soooo nicely and such a compliment to your quilt.
It turned out great Kim. I like your landscape block. I have been thinking lately to make story block - thanks for sharing.

This turned out so cool! I love how much depth those trees add to the scene. I know what you mean about losing your mojo - happens to me in summer too.
Very cool Kim! That project is really beautiful! Looks like it was fun to make too. Great job!
Your trees and flowers really added a lot to this landscape. You did such a nice job. I'm sure Suze will be pleased.
WOW Kim, it's amazing how your trees added so much more depth to this piece!! Well Done!!

Pretty cool to see your progress as each tree got better and better. The finished trees turned out just great. Great landscape too.
Kim.
I love your wallhanging quilt- All those gorgeous details and embellishments you have added to make it yours. The trees look fabulous and I love the decorative flowers on the right side.
Thanks for sharing.
I also appreciate your visits to my blog- I don't always get a chance to reply but am so pleased you continue to stop by.

Kim, these are beautiful! I can't believe they are done free-motion, and they add a great deal to the design. You are very talented at this. There's a lady in my sit and sew group who teaches this kind of thing, she calls it "thread-painting".
What a detailed and beautiful quilt, Kim.
The trees really brought it to life - your work is amazing - just like you!
Truly Beautiful!
I LOVE 'em! can't wait to see how they look up close!
That looks fabulous, you are clever! I'd have to have a wine or two before I could even attempt it.
Wow, Kim - it's wonderful!
Looks great Kim!
