I'm working on the appliqued trees for the Flags of the American Revolution quilt-along organized by Lori of Humble Quilts.
I tacked up the center medallion on my sewing room wall. I can see it across the hall from my bedroom.
From this far away, and especially in dim light, I see that I don't have nearly enough contrast between eagle and background.
But I do not want to re-stitch this block. I have my heart set on using a lot of this blue throughout.
I may do some off-white sashiko stitching around the perimeter of the Eagle, once the quilt is sandwiched. Any other ideas??
The nights are chilly now, and the mums are everywhere, another sure sign of fall:
