I have hopes that both of these projects will move quickly – first is this cute applique mini-quilt. I’ve been looking at these sheep for forever – here they are in mid-assembly:
The second, I’ve already given you a peek at – I’m trying this new frame and so far do NOT like it. If you have any tips/hints on using the frame I’d love it. My biggest complaint is that it doesn’t pull really tight – now I’ll admit this is a really really cheap frame, but I didn’t want to invest until I liked the concept. Is it the frame’s fault? Or mine? thoughts?
Anyway, this will be crewel – can’t wait to pick out some fun colors and start playing with it!
