My First Design: Pity!
 
10 Attachment(s)
Hello! How are you? I hope that very well!
I tell them that in October 2010, I took a course of Fusible Appliqué, with Ms. Shirley MacGregor (a renowned American quiltera), who was walking by Argentina. And I had the immense good fortune to know and take courses with her.
This in particular, taught us to make our own design to use then.
I was away from home (1,200 km.) and missing my "daughter" hairy: my Weimaraner dog named Pity.
And the unconscious betrayed me! Took me to draw it and translate it into a mini quilt!
I sharing with you some pictures: 1) Step by step of my design, 2) I and Ms. MacGregor, 3) from the mini quilt that now looks on our wall and 4) my daughter taking enjoying the soft winter sun!
I hope you enjoy the images and having them stolen a smile!
I wish all to spend a beautiful day!
A strong hug!

Hello Gladys, Your "Pity" is wonderful. Good to see you. It has been a while since you posted. I always love to see what you are working on and to hear about life in Argentina.

Here is a big hug back to you,
