Bonnie' s Anything Goes DYB


This is Bonnie's block I stitched for her Anything Goes DYB. I did some SRE flowers as decoration for the fan and then I wanted an all white seams for the background. Hope she likes it!
As I haven't feeling with PC I could do a disaster with mine...last week it was off so I thought that was good to do a restoration of the system...in this way I LOST EVERYTHING!
e-mail system, internet connection, 4 years of photos and so on!
This is a lesson....

Plaing with Chicken scratch

I am playing with Chicken scratch that is the stitch for this month on Sharon B's Challenge. I used a pattern she suggested and as it is a square I thought to do my first Biscornu!
I will put a photo of the finished project when ready.

Anything Goes 5 DYB

I signed up for some RR in the CQI Group and one is for this ATG 5 DYB where six blocks 6"x6" are sent together in the round with the opportunity to choose where to stitch the magic!
I was in trouble with the theme but finally I decided for a very popular that is "under the sea" with curved piecing method.

Christmas in January....

Yesterday was Christmas again because Susan's Christmas Cracker for me arrived after a long trip!
She sent it on November to be here for Christmas but it returned back to her in January and finally arrived here to me safe and sound.
This is what she sent...it is wonderful she chose a pansy theme and this is one of my favorite because in spring my garden is covered from different kind of pansy that pop up in different color and period (but I never put them in my garden they are carried by the wind).
As I am attracted from the block I am thinking...make a second block with the extra fabrics she sent and stitch them now and do something for me?! I hate when my mind go on more then my hands!
In any case thank you so much Susan!
