Tutorial on Balcony at Sunrise III

This is my piece for the annual SAQA Benefit Auction. I'm calling it "Balcony at Sunrise, III"

I'm often asked how I make my pieces.
Notice the piece on the left has heat-n-bond ironed to the back. The piece on the right is marked into a grid at 1.25" intervals.


I cut 1" patches from the heat-n-bond piece...

...and iron them to the 1.25" gridded piece.



Then I lay the top over 2 layers of batting and the backing.

And now I'm ready for the background quilting.

Starting out.

Stitching down the silhouette.

The signed back.
