Commission Wall Hanging - Part Two

This is a continuation of a previous post about the making of a commission piece for my brother and sister-in-law.

After I placed the upper left section on the design wall, one of the pieces stuck out like a sore thumb.  I had saved all of the freezer paper pattern pieces and used it to draw another stabilizer piece, then switched out the offending fabric.  It looked much better.  Can you see it too?



While the upper left section looks very dark and like one fabric, it is actually 5 different fabrics.  I think it'll add some subtle texture to the piece, but it was a lot of work for not much impact.

I worked on the lower left section next and cut the swirly curvy moss green middle piece to make sure that I had enough fabric in the right color before I cut up the entire yardage.


The next section was the upper right.


Then part of the lower right.  I changed out the fabric on several pieces many times while trying to introduce some more white/light turquoise.  

Here is the completed top.  I hope you like it so far!
