doodlebug Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 i'm doing a BOM on my blog and the setting i created has a large square in the center (think medallion) with the blocks around it on point... so i drew out this design to be appliqued in the center.... whatcha think? (i think the flowers look like the mushrooms from the original mario brothers.....) excuse the crudeness of it, i only drew one 'corner' and used paint to flip and rotate to create the entire block design...

LibbyG Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I really like it too. Just exactly how did you draw this design. Did you draw it on paper, scan it to the computer, use paint to flip it etc. I'm not good with the computer and didn't realize how easy it would be to flip a design. Thanks for your help!

Mary Beth Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Shannon, The flowers look more like wimsical jonquils....not mushrooms And they look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doodlebug Posted January 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 mary beth- i was thinking stylized daffodils when i drew them...so your thinking they were jonquils is good libby- i cut out a 15" square of freezer paper, folded it in halves, then on the diagonal. then i sketched my idea with pencil. oncei got what i wanted i went over it in sharpie. i took a picture of it opened it in paint and cropped, resized and copied the image to get four, then i rotated it and put it together....

PattyJo Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I really like your applique too. I like the way that the stems work out in the middle. Great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagecl Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I like everything too, but the flowers do remind me of mushrooms...sorry I can't see them as anything else but mushrooms. Maybe I am the only odd one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracey Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 love it. Is your bom online for all or is it a studio thing?? Have I asked a dumb question?? Let me know. I wanna join!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisalnewman Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Shannon, I wouldn't change a thing, absolutely beautiful applique design. Great possibilities for quilting also. I love original work, it is inspiring to see your BOM's progress. You are tempting me to jump right in. I am going away for almost 2 weeks but when I get back it will be at the top of my to do list. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
