The Cheshire quilter: A BIT OF BROWN...

Tuesday, 10 July 2012

...today. I thought I would show you the little quilt/wall hanging that was my introduction to foundation piecing.....

I used lots of scraps from my stash...

so, from a distance it looks like the fabrics are all the same..

but NO! (don't you want to pick off that bit of cotton!!! I am going to do it NOW!!!)

I (as you know!) like to embellish... so lots of leaves and a spider, and some acorns...

It was a fun project to work on..

and it got me addicted to foundation work!!

keep smiling
