My DGD 6 with her tote bag she finished making on this sleep over, so lovely to see her wanting to sew? Thats a tapestry of mine she choose to applqiue on to the front.
Centre of a big daisy? On a men’s tie shoulder bag I’m making.
My week has been a mixture of ups and downs. I lost a very dear friend, same day my DGD decided to have a sleep over for a couple of days it was the best fix for my sadness. Sewing on the machine has been all most nil, but have added 100’s of tiny stitch’s. To some DJ blocks.
Pulled my scrappy quilt and made up 40 more background shapes so I can add some more when I have time. I will still need about 60 more after them???? This is one of Esther’s designs all so.
Changed my big flower bloom head
To this one, it goes better with the rest of my Alice theme?
Start of making block 2 of Wrapt in Love.
Love how the colours are working?
Changed these flowers to Borderie Perse fussy cut flowers, Alice would have loved them?
And there we have it all ready for machine applqueing down.
Block 1 and 2 together!
Making my diamonds that have a strip in them for HOTYH
First one made now I need to make another 3?! I’m working on themLOL
One of my scrappy shoulder bags I have been making. It was for some one special.
He came to visit us tonight about 3 1/2 inchs long, we call the green tree frogs, they love to go back to the same place each morning for the day time. When we lived in PNG I had trees all around my verranda and I had 7 of them coming out each night and then slide back in to a wee knock for the day time and all ways in the same wee spot???? Biggest one we had up there was 5inchs when crouching. They were so use to me they would not move when I went up close and studied them?
Time I went and joined up with Esther’s WOW or WIP’s thanks so much for dropping in Cheers Glenda
we always have the green tree frogs at this time of year love to hear them make their noises. Sorry you have lost a dear friend – a hazard as we get to this age isn’t it, the older we get the more family and friends in our age group we hear get sick. Glad you had time with your granddaughter to help you through this and take your mind off of it. Love all your projects!
I love your Wrapt in Love project, so beautiful. Great colors. Cute little frog 😉
Oh Glenda….your Wrapt in Love blocks are stunning. Thanks for sharing so much of what you do. So glad your little grand daughter was solace in your time of loss.
Dear Glenda
You have been quiet. So glad you had your granddaughter come visit you and make you smile. She sees too, what a gift. We are finally starting to turn the corner here and we have more spring like days than winter. We hear the frogs here, but have yet to see one yet. Did see our first chipmunk two weeks ago, it almost caused a traffic jam. Your applique is looking stunning. Have a good Easter.
So sorry for your loss, Glenda. Your appliqué fabrics are fabulous!
