Show and Tell and some stitching progress

Colleen has been busy stitching again this week and has finished her stocking from the Stitching on the Lake day a few weeks ago. Looks very good.
 Sue has also been busy and has created this lovely hanging using the stitcheries and appliques from the Stitching in the Hills retreat. She chose to use the 5" blocks in the charm pack and the quilt has turned out very well.

 I have been slowly stitching my Scandinavian rose redwork blocks but had become a little tired of all the red stitching so got out this kit I had bought a while ago. I had all the gorgeous buttons and this hanging was one I really wanted to make ONE DAY. It actually didn't take that long to stitch once the appliques were done. It is from the Nancy Halverson book, Tidings.


 I have also finished the stitchery and applique on this project from the Christmas day in Melbourne last weekend.
 This gorgeous little angel was a special gift from Rose, who we caught up with for dinner, last weekend. She surprised us with this little angel and a lovely little kit to make a little elephant pin cushion. Thanks Rose. They are both very special.

It's great to see the Nancy Halverson wall hanging all finished, I was admiring it at the Christmas gathering and hoping I'd get to see it when you'd finished it :) Barb.
