Lady in a Forest Dress - Part 7 - Final - 'FOREST GAZER"

This is a continuation of 6 previous posts about the making of the Lady in a Forest Dress.

I decided to do the quilting on my domestic sewing machine instead of my sit-down longarm so that I could quickly change threads and needles. Since the piece was already so thick from all of the applique pieces, I used a thin Thermore batting.  A size 90/14 needle was used for most of the quilting, which alternated between several kinds and colors of thread, and a size 70/11 needle was used for the face using a lightweight silk thread.   

After the piece was quilted and faced, I hand stitched the bark bodice back in place.  It's 26" W and 32" H.

I named it "Forest Gazer" and I hope you like it.
