Sparrow is Flying





Hi Friends

 

Following prep of 8 applique blocks at last month's getaway I've stitched every chance I could and below is the result!

Little Sparrow (design by Susan Smith) is together but still has some finishing touches by way of a little embroidery for sparrow beaks and legs as well as detail in a few leaves & flowers.

 

I started this quilt at Summer School 2010 - 7 Years Ago!!

Christmas is Upon Us

Hello Friends

It's hard to believe we are only weeks away from Christmas ~ where has the year gone!!

I hope you enjoy a little post of pretties

My precious Granddaughter; who is just Everything and fills my heart beyond words.

Sewing of a different kind; these fabrics are just beautiful and I had a lot of fun on these. Plus precious little Miss wearing an outfit.

This year I planted a new Rose Garden; it has been so wonderful to have these beauties to admire and smell.
