Japanese Goldwork

This one was just pieced on December 17, 2015....but i had to do a small one since the next few in line are large. haha

The blocks are done on the embroidery machine.

Top thread was Glide gold and bobbin was So Fine black. no quilting shows on the back. and not much shows on the front, either. binding was the yellow

I just quilted over the embroidery pic in the blocks, SID the sashings and blocks and borders. did a wavy watery thing in the yellow border and clamshells in the last border.
