Cardinal Tile Scene
Realistic embroidery requires many layers of colors and fabric to achieve the perfect balance of artistry and practicality. This quilt uses hidden appliqué to both stabilize the stitches and add a very subtle pop of color underneath. After all the stitches are complete, admirers will barely notice the fabric holding it all together.
Swirling and sophisticated bean stitches in closely matching threads allow the background to stand out without stealing the attention from the cardinals in this tile scene.
