Silver Airstream Dreaming

I had started this a few months back, and came back to finish it up.  This is my first attempt at making a silver Airstream with a variety of silver type fabrics. I free motion machine quilted this entire piece, before adding the bunting flags. The main fabric on the roof of the trailer was fraying something awful.

My solution to stop the fraying on the top, was to add a strip of cotton fabric just over the fray and I think it completes it.  Then I decided that the piece needed more balance.  How about these two leftover flowers?

Maybe this single flower?

Bright idea to use this pen to create details in the flags and flower.

and in the landscaping

Finished!  New sleek silver Airstream Dreaming.  Time for a road trip!
