This is fabric that is hand dyed and lovelier than the picture. The green one is a sage green. These were part of the yard sale I attended on my second visit.

I sewed 7 days last week. I am enjoying early morning sewing while it is still light outdoors. Maybe winter dark will be a problem.
I have a plan for my Cross stitch sampler finish. I decided to use a sticky foam board for the fabric. And I stained an old thrift store cutting board for the mounting. It is a close fit and I might not like it but I am moving forward.

Christmas Snowflakes turned out beautifully, that has always been one of my favorites. I remember when you started that one. Congrats on all the stitching time this week. And as always your stash numbers are absolutely awesome!
ReplyDeleteLovely Christmas quilt! I hope mounting the Spring cross stitch on the cutting board works out for you. Gail at the cozy quilter.
