Sixth ATC

As I've mentioned in a few previous posts, EAC is having an atc challenge and the deadline is March 15th, 2012.  This is the 6th one I've made for the swap.  I sewed the leaves using free form machine sewing on a piece of blue polyester overlayed with a piece of organza and then did 3 kinds of flowers: 1 small pink lazy daisy, 3 purple buttonhole and 1 large yellow and orange flower using the whipped spider web stitch with a lot of french knots. I was going to try to make 10 for the swap but am running out of steam.  I have one more in the works & I think that's going to be it for this year.

    This is a lovely combo of machine and hand embroidery. Love the edge too.

      Thanks Annet! Wish I had more time for free motion sewing. One day!

    This ATC is pretty...love the blue! I used to make a lot of ATCs. Mine were out of paper though. I never tried one with fabric...might have to do that.
    Good for you making seven for this swap!

      Thanks Marie! I'm definitely hooked on atc's. If you ever would like to stitch one I'll happily do a swap :)
