This is my Jan. crazy quilt block. Funny, now that I am looking at the photo of it, I am not as happy with it. It needs a little more work. Sometimes I wonder if anything is ever truly finished!
Okay, well it is my version of that stitch. I did not do the padding/satin stitch. To me it just looked heavy and I didn't want that. I am sure that it will look good on other stitching. I struggle with getting the herringbone even. This is about the closest that I have ever got! It helped to have the regular pattern in the fabric to use as a guide. I do like this stitch. Sharon has great instructions at http://pintangle.com/ For some strange reason this didn't post yesterday! Weird.
Look at this gorgous table runner I receiver from Leslie at http://marvelesartstudios.blogspot.ca/ I am thrilled to have a piece of her lovely work! She is so very talented. Fun!
I have added some more stitching, couching and trims. It is not likely to be finished by tomorrow though. Oh well, in a couple of days maybe. There have been a lot of other projects taking up my time. They have more pressing deadlines so they take precedence.
I have been doing a lot of zentangles lately. I am wanting to do a piece of furniture with zentangle on it. Actually I have started drawing the chair. I can't show it just yet though as it for the Habitat for Humanity project. Fun!
from my husband on this. Pretty cool! It doesn't happen very often. This is a zentangle I have done. I am planning to do a similar one on a chair I have painted white. It is for the Habitat for Humanity project I am working on right now. I am super excited about the project. I actually started drawing on the chair this morning. Unfortunately, I must not have had enough coffee as I drew the heart facing the back of the chair! ugh!!! Now I have to prime and paint another coat so that the ink doesn't bleed through. I have to say I was a tad anxious about making 'mistakes' on this piece. So now I have made a great big one and must start over. Oh well. Maybe that will be the only mistake I make!
