Autumn Shimmer

The photo was the inspiration for Autumn Shimmer.
As with all inspirations, I choose what I wanted from the photos and discarded the rest. The trees on the treeside are made with a fringe foot, which is also called a tailor tack foot. The fringe foot allows the thread to form loops over a metal area of the foot. It is open in the back so the fringe slips off easily.
The sun is made from bondable Angelina fibers. The fibers will bond to themselves, but not the rubber stamp that was used to make the impression. I stitched the sun to the quilt using invisible thread and left some of the threads of the angelina that was not bonded to the stamp form the sun rays.
I choose a journal size to work with, so the quilt was finished in a couple of hours. What Fun.
