Witches in Bubbles.....One Flower Wednesday

“ Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured. ”  ― Mark Twain 

Last week I teased you all with a flower with a whole lot of pink in it.....and this week I will show you who it is!  

My lovely blogging friend, Kat, from Made with Love and Ladybug Hugs is two for two now! (Me thinks I am not the only Wizard of Oz Groupie around these parts..).......

When Dorothy first met Glinda, (The good witch), Glinda came floating down in a big bubble and when I made the original Glinda flower below, I was trying to sort of make her look like she was in a bubble by using the bubbly, swirly fabrics.....

 

After finding the new Oz fabric which included more of her body, I decided to switch out the center of the flower with a different view of Glinda.....

 And I also took out one of the petals above and moved another one down using it as a paver, instead, in an effort to try to make it look like she had just"floated" down in the bubble.....I don't know how successful I was but I think I can see it if I squint and hold my head just the right way.....lol......

Here she is in her place next to the Lollipop Guild........

 I am continuing to work on this section of the quilt and next week I will show you the flower that will connect the Munchkinland houses to the sky.....

Some of my followers have asked if I have been following some kind of "Master Plan" or if this is coming to me as I work on it and the answer is "Yes"......LOL

Let me explain;  I do have a plan in my head but when I first envisioned this plan I didn't have much of the Oz fabric that I have found since starting the project.  I learned that Timeless Treasures printed about 6 different Oz collections which are now out of print but I have been able to get my hands on quite a few of them.  These great Oz prints  have lent themselves so well to the idea in my head.
 At times, I have had to kind of adapt the flowers I made at the beginning and I have several flowers I made at the beginning that I'm really not sure where I will put them......til I get there.......

So, just like Dorothy did......I am exploring my way through Oz and at the end of my adventure I will have a wonderful Quilt to hang in my Dining Room that says, "There's No Place Like Home".......

Ta-Ta for now......talk to you again next time.........

Don't forget to go to Karen's Flower Garden at Journey of a Quilter to see the other pretty flowers growing there..............
