Chasuble and colors

As I told you, I was asked to do a chasuble for our parson and it must be a colorful one. He loves colors. I have to do the middle piece and the main color is going to be green.

I couldn't resist to put this photos in the blog... Just to show the colors I am using, the silks and the golds...

I also put a picture of one of the different backgrounds I'm sewing.

I worked on them with the embellisher and I'm doing machine stitching over nylon hankies on top of the silks. I hope he's not going to get too near the candles of the First Communion children... I couldn't think of another technique to subdue the silks and gold fabrics. These disintegrate in my hands. I just didn't want to use traditional quilting because I wanted to work free of grids and patterns...
