worked on cutting out a tree and my log pile today I am going to add a stump under the saw
and put a sun with a mirror in it at the top! not sure yet how to do the mirror maybe a large circle gathered at the edge that the mirror fits into. stitching it down before gathering the edge if you can understand what I mean. any other ideas I bought some plastic mirror that I can cut with heavy scissors and it is pretty clear as far as a mirror goes. Thanks everyone for the kind comments.

LOL this is not really looking like I wanted it to but then I never have done any applique before so it is a wing and a promise! I think it will be a wall hanging . Talked to my DDIL tonight and she said her husband (my son) was disappointed she chose nautical for his room instead of Orange stihl colors! I think this will be a hit with him anyway it turns out! A few more things to sew on then I will post a picture. maybe if it is viewed from a horse going at a fast gallop it will look ok.

Mom was unsure of the name until she decided it sounded like an actor! LOL his brothers are all named after people they knew but to tell your son he is named after a chainsaw?! LOL

Ugg not turning out how I had hoped but then I have never done anything like this so it is kinda sloppy. But it is still kind of cute! I think it will be a wall hanging.[ATTACH=CONFIG]541694[/ATTACH]

Thanks Lynnie I am thinking I should have skipped the crinkle in the tree it looks puckered a bit but maybe it I figure out how I am going to quilt it I can smooth it out. I may just tie it, I need to press it too as the sun does have more points!
