Raewyn's been making hexie-flowers again. |
|
And doing a bit of applique.. and stitching. |
|
Isn't she just lovely? |
|
Whoop whoop first ever feathers on a quilt! |
I really enjoyed making this quilt and am happy with the result. It's going to be a shop sample at my local, aka
The Country Yard.
And just out of interest;
In her comment to
this post, Suz questioned how necessary black tulle and a silver sharpie were for the method of stencil transfer (onto dark fabrics) practised in April's FMQ challenge. Here is a photo showing white tulle and black pen and black tulle and silver pen - interesting - in this case, both would have worked equally well.
And look what came in the post - the
lovely Melody sent YD a surprise parcel last week, for being a
'new generation bear maker'.

Lovely mohair, bear shoes and one of her fabulous scissor fobs.
Cant think where the cute little chocolates have gone..? |
YD was very excited and overwhelmed by the generosity of one of my 'bloggy friends'. Thank you Melody.
Here's to a fun and quilty week - happy stitching every-one,
