I thought 'd finished work!
I added some more hexies to my Hexie Rounds
I made myself a rope bowl
I made some German Christmas stars
One of the Stitch ladies brought some thick aluminium foil from Germany. Cut eight circles, and snip in 3/4 to the middle 8 times
Twist the outer arcs around a pencil to make a point (well, 8 points)
Like this, then snip two small squares from an elastic band. Thread a needle, and sew through elastic square, 8 pointy circles and then a final square of rubber, and pull tight!
I embroidered some initials onto linen napkins for a customer
I machined the binding onto the Kaffe Fassett quilt
I embroidered a name onto an already made brick I-spy quilt for a friend who has just become a grandma
and then I discovered these two have wondered off somewhere - and I was planning on gifting them tomorrow!!!
And wouldn't you believe I have no white felt left!
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.
