Sewing supplies at the hardware store? Yes!

This pieces was made by free motion quilting on the front of the fabric and then using the back...
Each "flower" center is made of a metal washer wrapped with yarns and threads...the piece became very heavy very quickly...I will use plastic washers next time!!!

I free motioned the "petals" first and then hand-stitched the covered washers on...

I also cut into the quilt to create slits. In these slites I placed plastic tubing covered with jeans and random threads from my sewing studio floor.....


The shape of it, is the shape of it...It comes out as it comes out....
