I've been working on my collage flower bouquet today. I basted everything in place first using a yellow thread. I'm using the raw edge applique method and am adding in more detail with extra stitchery stuff like embroidery embellishments & different coloured threads.
I guess it's a combination of borostitching and bohoembroidery. However, I must say, I'm a bit out of my comfort zone here. So it's going to be pretty much a collection of organic random stitching, lots of patterns & textures, changing where the mood & fabrics take me.
But basically, I'm making it up as I go along . . . until next time, Linda

This is lovely Linda, very reminiscent of AMH’s style. Do you think it will become a cushion?
Oh I just love it--"bohoembroidery"--what a great term;)))

That is so much fun! A bouquet of fabric flowers - and I love the blackbird in the midst of them, too. Looks like a lot of fun to stitch!
It looks Like it would be so liberating and free to stitch up something like this. I really like it.
Beautiful project Linda and using some of my very favourite AMH fabric Source Code in your pink fabric spray.
Loving the way it has come together so far.
