Finished quilting these two turkeys and then stepped back to see how I was liking the scene.
Decided the original placement of the other turkeys was not as good as adding a few more and moving them around. Sketches are only that ...... once you begin you can see better layouts and perhaps the need for more trees and more turkeys.
I had just enough time to quilt down the left hand side trees...the right hand side ones will have to stay loose until the turkeys go in.....and that is for another day!

As a fellow art-quilter, I would love to know how the paper becomes fabric.
Oh so many questions...are the lines on your birch trees drawn in with ink or thread? Are the pine needles hand embroidered on? What size is this project? And I too would like to know how u go from that turkey sketch to the intricate fabrics of the bird. I see the progress but am amazed at the results. I am in awe of your work.
I like how the new additions add more depth and the thread work on the trees is amazing, love seeing them close up like this.
