Update - Fabric Samples


This is what I have done with the fabric samples so far.
This piece was cut up then stitched together. After sandwiching with some thin wadding and backing fabric I quilted them together with a decorative machine stitch.




For the boat I outlined with freehand machine embroidery, then stitched it to a sketchbook page which I had torn out. I reattached the page with hand stitches.



Another boat also outlined with machine embroidery.



I used a red thread for the freehand machine embroidery to quilt the three layers together.
This one is my favourite so far.



I have one large piece of fabric that I've not done anything with yet
