Week 5 Debbie Helser

This is a little 8 X 10 ditty I embroidered while in a class in Hawaii. I started with a piece of dyed canvas then stamped the lotus and pattern across the bottom. I laid that on a piece of painted batting then  embroidered around the flower, added the stem and "constellations". I finished it off with a bit of quilting in a grid across the bottom. I like the effect of the lotus blossom floating with just a touch of "grounding" in the stem.
