Because I'm sick and tired of winter, and I wish that it was Spring.
If you haven't heard the song First of May before, you can find it here.
Dear Partner,
I've taken this little quilt apart and put it back together again. I like it much better this way ... and really hope you do, too! The chocolate wrappers were just too distracting, so, they're outta there. Maybe they'll end up on the back? I had to put a heart sticker on the block in the upper right - too much information in that little piece of map fabric under there - haha!
Next step, quilting ... If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them!
xo,
Gayle
I think this one looks less ecclesiastical and more 60's or something. And then it makes me think of Russian nesting dolls......I practiced my bullion Knots on this and each knot is perfect (well as perfect as I can make them). No loops of thread at the end. I used what Karen said on the video about pulling them back out a bit and it works like a charm. They are supposed to be marching along in an orderly way, but I am afraid they are an undisciplined bunch!

Early nineteenth century sewing sampler stitched by Elizabeth Lyle when a young girl.
The text in the center reads,"Elizabeth Lyle worked this in the eleventh year of my age. In the morning think what you have to do. And at night ask yourself what you have done."

This is my version of the Mod-Sampler quilt from Oh Fransson with Heather Bailey prints and Kona solids. My dog, Barley, wanted in on the picture. It's a cute pic of him, not so great of the quilt since the sun was so bright. My indoor pic showed the fabric much better (see my photostream). I realized after I added this to the Mod-Sampler group that the person before me had their lab in the pic too!!! Funny!
Through 3rd lesson
begins with teal floss herringbone added to the last line from week2
2 tows of cable chain, both in pearl cotton
row shallow herringbone in hemp
next row has slinky yarn couched and laced (look closely!)
turquoise row of twisted chain
chain variation
knotted cable chain in Watercolors (green tea is the color)
double cretan with straight stitches in pearl
running stitches in copper metallic yarn (this area is not finished)
Finally in #8 pearl crested chain
These were the first stitches I learned. After I practiced, I just kept this piece on the hoop and kept filling in the space. I actually like it though. i think I'll make something out of it.
I just started working on this absolutely gorgeous sampler, and I've been really enjoying it so far! It's great practice and will make a beautiful piece to hang in my apartment. Love it! : )
Pattern: Daisychain ABCs by Alicia Paulson.
Here are a few sneak peeks of a vintage lace sampler I have just finishedt. I am not showing it in its entirety as I am submitting it for publication in the next Sew Somerset magazine and don't want to give too much away yet. (Lots of 20 minute sessions!)
