....they just keep popping up everywhere. A fun workshop was recently presented by one of our Liberty Ladies members - this was the result -
And check out Thimble Stitch (tap name for link) interpretations with additional cross stitching...
Have to love those hexies - and know there are more coming in the Di Ford Mystery quilt (saw a sneak peek in a photo from the Nantes Quilt Show in France)
No hexies here, but completed Block #5 in the Benjamin Biggs Wedding Quilt - really liked doing this block, as a larger piece of the red chintz could be used - this antique-inspired fabric is a favorite of mine, even though it is a tad heavier and thus does not needle turn as smoothly as I would prefer.
Finally back to working on the center wreath for Drayton Hall...it has been folded up for too long!
Stress level continues on a high note, so keeping hands busy continues too..
Have a good week everyone.

That is a cute hexie pincushion.
ReplyDeleteYou have hinted before about stress in your life. Sorry it is continuing! I hope the handwork can be therapeutic for you! It all looks beautiful!
Lovely little hexie pincushion, the button is a cute touch. Your appliqué looks wonderful. I really don't know how non-sewers cope in times of stress, my stitching often saves me too. Thinking of you. X

ReplyDeleteI echo the well wishes for stitching your way through stressful times. Take care.
I hope the stress levels remain in manageable limits. Too much and other things might go wrong.
ReplyDeleteThese are such pretty little objects, working at them must be just a little therapeutic?
Take care.
