Blue Wren couching with yarn class with Helen Godden

This second couching class with Helen Godden was also fun to complete.  First I traced the design of the bird and foliage on the white fabric background.  Next, time for free motion quilting the background.  I used echo quilting around the bird design.  Then I sectioned off the different areas of the background to free motion quilt using some of my favorite designs.  I am glad that I practiced the yarn couching with the landscape quilt first.  It was a challenge to complete the small bird sections.  I used the a black fabric marker for the legs, beak and eye.  For the binding, I used 4 strand of variegated green yarn.

The finished size is 17″ x 26″.

Keep having fun sewing and quilting. Donna
