Who doesn’t enjoy the loveliness of a morning in the garden with the sunshine dancing on the dew drops. I know I do! It is my favorite time of day.
I have always loved flowers. In my younger days my yard was filled with gardens overflowing with their beauty. Their colorful faces added a delight to my yard that thrilled me immensely.
Now that I’ve experienced more years that I have left my huge garden days are over. I still enjoy the beauty of flowers and their wonderful scent but I have adjusted my expectations. Rather that spending hours tending to my gardens, inhaling the many fragrances, feeling the soil between my fingers, soaking in the eye-popping colors and the warmth of the sun’s rays I experience those joys through my portfolio of photos and my occasional plantings.
With my days of prolific gardening behind me I have made attempts to recreate my love of flowers through my art and my surroundings. The art piece I am about to share with you today is the second addition to my layered quilt portfolio. My most recent completion is titled Morning In The Garden, AP # 89. Let’s explore it’s beauty through photographs. Click on the photos, in each grouping, to see them in greater detail

Thank you so much for visiting!
Beautiful. Tried to give it a 5 star, but it only took four and wouldn’t let me change it.
You are awesome! Thank you! 😍
I’m enjoying meandering through the paths in your fabric garden! Love this.
Awe aren’t you sweet! 😊
A lovely piece
Thank you so much!
Hi Cindy! What a great representation of your flower garden in this piece. I love all the different fabrics and textures you gathered together. I’ll bet it was really fun to make, and now to enjoy hanging in your home. ~smile~ Roseanne
Roseanne, I totally agree. It is a very colorful and exciting piece. Creating it was truly a joy. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. 😍
Gorgeous, Cindy!!
Amazing work, and such a beautiful piece of art. 💚🌼🌸🌿💗
That looks amazing, such a fun and whimsical design :-). Also a great way to still do some ‘gardening’
I like the color scheme, the wonderful textures, and the embroidery. Do you use a giant hoop or large frame to hold the work while you hand stitch it?
Awe thank you so much! I do not use a frame or hoop. I simply hold it in my hands. When I am finished stitching the art piece I spritz it with water and block it. Thank you for asking! 😊
