I am working on my Hoffman Spectrum Digital print fabric panel that I received for a gift about four to five years ago. I have been so excited to do this and have so appreciated all the generous quilters who have posted photos of their amazing quilting of this panel. They have also offered information on the process they used and what materials they used.
I requested a black and white panel because I wasn’t sure where I might hang this when it was completed. I am using white thread at the center, a lighter gray, medium/dark gray and black as I work out from the center.
I’ve had to be patient with myself and let the quilting designs come to me. I just want to look at the panel and know quickly how I will fill each pedal. I am not able to do that, so I have to take time to seek ideas and audition designs. Also, because I am using new quilting designs I am not happy with my first attempts and have found I need to practice them first. This all slows down the process.
It is taking much longer than I anticipated.
