Fabrics Galore!

This is a piece of mini art that I handstitched during the week ~ shiboried old linen, measuring a mere 5x11 inches.  Small work is always a good way for me to get back into handstitching, and I do have another bigger piece in the works now.

The presentation I gave to the local quilt guild on Thursday evening was a roaring success.  Plus, I sold quite a bit of handmade fabric to these traditional quilters.  All the remaining fabric was just posted at my Textile Shop, so check it out.

Hope you have a glorious late winter/early spring weekend.  An online friend in Switzerland reported that the temperature there this morning was 100 degrees, believe it or not.  I think we're in for another wacky weather year.

  2. Congrats on a sucessful talk and the sales! Our weather definately is wacky. 65 degrees one day and 30 the next. I agree, this summer should be interesting. Love the stitching on the fabric. Wishing you a weekend that is full of fun and creativity.
