I'm quite pleased with my FMQ progress on Evolution. I made dark blue narrow stripes by eye. I think this will have even better texture after washing. The center square flower I found on line and am happy to give credit to Lori Kennedy. She even has a free tutorial at this link. It was fun to make and I love how it turned out. I like it so well that I used it in different colors on all the 4" to 6" squares in the quilt.
I tried a swirl with pebbles and feathers on a set of squares before I found the flower.
I tried a variety of fills on one of the corners. Only one I like much is the feathers, but it is on a wider strip than most of the area I need to fill, but I am leaning toward feathers for the medium colored sections in the first photo.
I have been using up some varegated green thread. I discovered a while ago that I'm not that keen on it for most quilting motifs that I do as the dark/light can make it's own odd, unpredictable patterns.
Back to the sewing room for me. (After a glass of wine and looking for a design for the large square I need to fill.)
