Busy Times

I was reminded of a baby quilt that I had made a few years ago and it made me realize that I didn’t have any pictures of it. So I began to think that I better change that... be they be good or so so 😉

I have been so busy learning my new toy and loving it! It has opened up a whole new world for me...at times it’s been overwhelming too. I have watched so many utube videos and joined new Facebook groups. My memory isn’t what it used to be either (why is that?!) lol...so this is what has been under the needle since October!

At Art guild we have been playing with fabric dying and painting. This one was with shaving cream and acrylic paint...smelled good but looks like smeared on paint..lol..

...so then I tried some embroidery 

This is a mandala photo that I downloaded off the internet and stitched it out

...another printed off the net

I discovered a company out of Australia that creates the cutest patterns .... love, love, love them!

...made them into a table runner
