Not sure yet what I'm going to do with the black ones yet. I'd originally planned to combine all in one top, but the creams and blacks are way too busy together and are much better separated out.
Here is April's amazing needle-turned applique! Don't you just love the buttons and beading she added too?? Please try to contain your drool! LOL. Thanks again so much, April!!
:-D :-D :-D
Awww you make me blush-I am honored that you are using it for the centerpiece! :oops: :oops:
What Sew Cornie failed to mention is this was my first needle turn applique ever (done while Izabella was in surgery & recuperating) and I had to do the beadwork and buttons to cover my not so great needle turn areas lol
I truly am honored that you feel it deserves such a special place. When I saw your focus fabric it screamed watering can to me and I could only find an applique one so you became my victim...err I mean recipient :-)
I really am glad you like it and again I am humbled by it's placement and motivation for the rest of the quilt!
I am hoping to do more NTA for group 3 if I can as I am going to Vegas in September for work so have a very long flight(non-stop) so maybe I can do more. I did 3 for this swap...maybe next one I can do 10 and some day all 35 or however many lol
Hugs
April
