I started this back in 1998 and finished it yesterday! It is about 8" by 18" inches. Naturally dyed silk on linen, sampler #701 by Alyce Schroth.
Baby design was adapted from the Christmas baby design by Joanne Sanderson (see Christmas Baby Pillow in this set) and the rest was personalized and adapted from various design sources. The finished sampler was approx. 8x10" (or 10x12", I can never remember which).
Bonnet stitch sampler.
A quick one this week as I'm off on holiday for 3 weeks! Hope you all have a Happy Easter!
Designed by Lesa Steele. Best downloaded and viewed in Full Size (which is kind of big - sorry). I'm almost finished -there are only a few more bands to go. I decided to take a break (read chickened out) when I got to the hem stitching band, as I've never done those before! The beading is also being done at the end. I subbed the Kreinik with Rainbow Gallery PTB (Gold). Other fibers used: Silk N Colors Halloween Confetti; DMC Perle Ecru #8 + #12. Fabric is Cream Belfast Linen.
Block 4. My center pinwheel point on the blue block didn't match up very well. I can live with it. :)
My very first quilt. Pieced, hand/machine quilted and recently finished by me.

We had dinner at the Padre Brewing Company and tried a sample tray of their five different beers. The stout was a little disappointing, but the wheat ale was divine.
