I'm teaching Dresden plates next week so thought it was about time I had a go! I'm really pleased with this one
But it took a lot of work getting the right angles on the segments!
Husband has been working on some different angles - the bathroom-floor-to-garden-table project is progressing well - and I can hear him sanding the edges as I type so hopefully they will be another photo soon.
Start
and nearly all glued in place . . .
Watch this space!
My sewing room is a right tip at the moment.
Amongst other things I am trying to make cooling summer scarves. According to several people on Pinterest these water absorbing beads are the thing to use, but I can tell you they aren't :-(
So I moved on to a new dress for me. I have fully lined it - so it's maybe a little thick for this weather (32 degrees as I type this!) but it means it is reversible. I've wanted to try reversible for a while and the batik was so flimsy I thought this was maybe the time to try it. Pockets and hems and then it's ready
I just love the batik pattern and the colour
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
