Good morning. My handwork this week has been working on the center to Heartfelt. This is a 2021 BOW from Gay Bomer at Sentimental Stitches. I am about half way done with my block. Here you can see Doris and her two dragon friends deep in conversation about my handwork. I did receive some constructive instructions.
Now to an old WIP. Back in 2018 Renata Niemczyk had this doiley pattern as a Tat-a-Long. You can find her Blog as renulek.blogspot.com. I made a yellow one in Lizbeth 20 weight 6 cord cordonnet thread. When I was done with it, I placed it on the back of my chair to enjoy it and Ziva has claimed it. It is still there to this day. (She is such a cat princess.) You can see it as my Blog photo.
When I finished the yellow one, I decided to make one in grey using a 40 weight thread. I finished 4 rounds and for some reason it was set down. This is the year that I finish WIPs and not start a lot of new projects. I am half way around round 6. This doiley has 13 rounds.
My machine has also been working. Am back to making the 365 Littles. The way that I have set up a completions schedule is: six days a week I make the blocks. One day, today is the day, I set the timer for two hours and piece the blocks into rows or 3 by 17. When a row is done it will be attached to the two sets already put together. I should be adding a set today.
Enjoy your day. Linking up to Slow Sunday Stitching at Kathy's Quilts.
Oh, I do love your tatted doily. So pretty!
ReplyDeleteLove your tatting! It is so nice when our machines work. I've been trying to quilt something on my Handiquilter Moxie. I start out fine, and then it develops birds nests underneath. I have another 12 inches to remove and try again. Hope today it is a better day! Happy stitching!
ReplyDeleteTatting seems so intriguing and so very clever! Your piece looks gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYour Heartfelt block is looking lovely. Your tatting looks exquisite; so clever.
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful quilt block and your tatting is stunning.
ReplyDeleteThat doily is gorgeous. I like your quilt block also. Enjoy working on your WIPs and putting together your blocks.
