So, you have a big area
that you wish to fill with pebbles, but, (sigh) they take such a long
time to do! A way to lighten the load, as it were, would be to
incorporate something larger into the pebbling. So, I call this
Islands in the Pebbles!
The outer border has
spirals, curls, and feather fronds thrown in randomly. The pebbles
fill the spaces in between. The area around the Christmas stockings
just uses the curls...slightly larger pebbles with an extra curl
inside.
And, can you see that cool
design in the dark red border. I hope so. I found that on pinterest.
(Which is a place where one can get lost for a long, long, time! LOL)
Happy Pebbling! (Something
I never thought I would say when I first tried it. But, now, it's one
of my fav fills. So, if you are struggling to quilt nice looking
pebbles, just keep trying. They do get better!)
OK, you make it sounds so much less scary than I keep thinking it must be to successfully intersperse other motifs inside a pebble field. This is such a pretty quilt, too!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lynette! Try this, it is not hard at all.
