Lara, your idea sounds delightful - another pretty option and I will look forward to seeing it grow. What are you planning, sizewise? I am envisioning three blocks by four in the centre, to narrow it down?
Carsey, yes, I hand stitched the embroidery, just as per the book. I haven't ever combined hand stitching and applique before, but when the app. is done, I am finding it really nice to bring it to life with the embroidery |
Finishing it out with the embroidery reminds me of doing cross stitch and bringing it to life in the end with the outline stitching. Pretty similar I think although I thing the embroidery does more for the applique.
I love your idea of the white,pink and purple. I know the white cat won't show up quite as well...but she/he will just have to "get over" it! LOL! Now to sit back and wait for the new quilt pic to be unveiled. :D: |
Lara, you could always make 2 - one for daughter & the other just for you!!!

Patti, I guess we now know who it was! :)

Didn't wanna hang out too long, there, ol' pal, ol' friend! Hey, one hand looks like the other! :roll:
|
I'm game for bribbery - cinnamon rolls just might do it!
|
Aw, you be nice to each other - no squabbling, just play nicely
(But Kathy, I think since you are right handed, perhaps you should have two right hands, and one left, not the other way round). |
But cinnamon rolls are so yummy, especially right out of the oven with icing dripping all over. Besides, you're on the right hand, remember! :) That might mean that I'd be slapping you instead of the other right hand!
Enough of this picture - my mind won't stop laughing about all this! Maybe if someone would feed me a cinnamon roll, I'd settle down. We have a new Cinnabon store in this po-dunk of a town, but since I'm waiting for the plumber, I can't go get one. Maybe if they come soon, that will be my lunch!!! |
