Flower Doodles Supply
“FLOWER DOODLES”
DESCRIPTION
These little flower quilts are the most fun!!!!!!! Using some simple
flower designs my son & I have designed you can trace these or draw your
own. We will use Wax Pastels (sort of like crayons) & water to create
water color paintings on fabric for little “Flower Doodle” art quilts.
The ones Chad & I did we used batiks for the wacky log cabin borders. The
doodle part of these quilts is done by free-motion quilting. I will give
you lots of tips on machine quilting using variegated threads for a
beautiful finish for your little quilt.
Instructors: Susan Edmonson & Chad Edmonson
