I started quilting the first of the 3 little confetti type wall art. I am using a variegated rayon embroidery thread for the quilting. I made several of these in June and July 2012. Here is a link to the start of one batch that year. It will explain a little more about them. This gives a better view of the way the pieces are just overlapped a small amount and there is a loose edge on each of them. Here it is after quilting in that same area. That piece is all done except the edge finish now. Next to it is one that hasn't been trimmed yet. If you go to this post and scroll down you can see the edge finish that I use.

Amanda Cobbett suspends a singular moment in the fleeting lives of fungi by stitching their likeness in thread. The textile artist photographs and gathers specimens that she brings back to her Surrey Hills-based studio, where she finds fibers to match pale green lichens and golden chanterelles.

In this tutorial, I will show you some tricks on how to thread a needle for hand sewing and embroidery and how to tie a knot. It will be useful not only for people who are just learning to sew and don’t yet know how to thread a needle but also for people who are experienced in sewing and learned to thread a needle 30 years ago. It seems so easy to thread a needle. You just push the thread right through the needle’s eye and that’s it. Yet you have to do it so often and it is so frustrating at times that many people, not only me, have come up with tricks, tools, and tips that help in the process.
