Texture Magic & the latest challenge

I started out by sewing the Texture Magic to the wrong side of the green fabric. I used alternating rows of straight and curvy stitching to sew them together. Then applied steam to side with T.M. (not touching iron to fabric). You can see how much it shrank... approximately 30%.

I then used the Textured piece for the grass in the picture. Pieced the sky... Made the Poppies by gathering a folded strip about 2 1/2" x 10"... Wrapped lengths of clothesline with strips of two different greens for the stems... Zigzag stitched the stems to the background... Attached poppies with button tied to background.
