This is my summer project for hand stitching.
I got the seasonal sets of these when I went the HMQS in May.
I've always wanted to try my hand at crazy quilting and these kits included preprinted, water soluable stitch guides. They will each finish 18"x18"...perfect for a seasonal wallhanging.
The kits are available at: SewCherished.com.
And now that I got my foundation all ready, I'll be using my perle cotton to stitch.
Please do feel free to comment and share your lessons learned as I am a newbie at this.
In the meantime, I'm off to find a Lifetime/Hallmark movie, sit down and give this a try.
Looking forward to sharing my progress with ya over the summer at Kathy's linky.
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Sunday Stitiching!
Crazy quilting is so much fun! Enjoy the hand stitching. The pattern looks great!
ReplyDeleteI'm new to wool also. I have a 4th of July candle mat that I am beginning to work on now. All I've learned to far is how to prep (wash) the wool and to use a chenille needle for stitching. (Not much, I know)
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing your project.
Happy Sunday :)
love a bit of craziness, have not tried it with wool and having a break from the BOM this year, finally attached the loops for hanging the 2014 one on friday.
