I have been busy sewing lately, but just haven’t been showing much. So this week I will post a picture a day of some finishes that have been happening around here.
Last week we were on spring break, so hubby, the girls and I escaped to the Kananaskis for three nights in the mountains. The scenery was gorgeous and the service, food and accommodations were amazing. It was a welcome break from the usual and hectic routine.
Before we get to a finish, here is what we woke up to on Sunday morning. It snowed all day Saturday leaving us with 21cm of heavy, wet, record breaking snow. It truly was beautiful, but I would rather it in December not APRIL. Lily was out enjoying the snow this morning.!!
Finish #1:
Remember this quilt? I was having difficulty with the red bobbin thread popping through. Well I did fiddle with tensions etc. but could never get it just right, so I decided what the heck, leave it as is. Best part it was all made from my stash!
I further embellished it with some blanket stitching on the appliques and some embroidered hearts in the ‘blank’ blocks.
I just LOVE this one!
Snow??? I hope you'll have spring weather soon!
ReplyDeleteLovely finish Lee!
I heard on the news the snow would be down south - it sure is pretty, but April??? Common!! We want to be playing in the garden, not still shoveling out from under!! I like your heart quilt to - very pretty and from stash!!! What could be better!
