A welcome present for the new minister at my unitarian universalist church. Images original me (pretty much freehand.)

 

Quote from Colbert Report:

"Reason has been a part of organized religion ever since two nudists took dietary advice from a talking snake."

 

It's a real "sampler", in that I used a lot of stitches I hadn't tried before. (see notes on that image.)

Top complete - now to make the backing and quilt it.

Progress so far... scrolling down! Squee!!

Three panels sewn together. These are the "yardage" that a pair of pants will be made out of...well, plus one more panel that's not shown here. Tammy has actually finished the pants, but I'm way behind on taking and loading pictures and someone asked to see these when I could get them up...so here ya go. This is a composite of pictures of each panel seperately. Oh, the elephant should get uploaded this evening...(I hope!)

No idea how this will end. Inspired by Tatreez embroidery.

this is a trial layout of my blocks. i started this as a quilt along, but got in a hurry and wanted to add more blocks, so i found more patterns on the internet and went for it! i love this quilt and i love french general's fabrics!

11.03.08 This is much better viewed large. I wanted to create a sampler of some of the designs I have been using lately. Thanks for looking.

I tried to improve the binding joins with a small embroidery...

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!)

somehow, the page on the left ended up looking more like a scrapbook page. The title of these pages is "Oh How I Love" and I love pearls, kids and dogs, haha!

working on another sampler to test out some more idea for my on going thoughts from alchemy: enso. there are a few of karen's stitches here so it isn't totally and dog's dinner served with a pig ear!

Check out the different versions that our writers and readers have been stitching! From left to right: arrow stitch, sheaf filling stitch, seeding, granito stitch, detached wheatear stitch, cross-stitches, and ermine stitch. The dividing lines are coral stitch, chain stitch, back stitch, stem stitch, split stitch, Portuguese stem stitch, and my whole garden is fenced in by back stitched chain stitch.

Continuing my Sajou sampler; discussing the trials and tribulations of E on the blog.

Maybe too many already. (And yet so many more I like to make.) I'm in serious trouble about how to make this into a consistent whole quilt. Expected, but still trouble. Any advice?

Looking down the row of different beer varieties to sample at a popular micro-brewery.

Modified from the Blackwork Sampler pattern in Alicia Paulson's book Embroidery Companion.

Still working on the sampler, visit the blog for these letters and more! :)
