Completed


This is a wallhanging for a dear
friend who cannot sew anymore
as she is going blind. She introduced
me to sewing. Most of the stitcheries
are by Leanne Pitman and the Country
family is by someone else, cannot
remember her name at this moment.
Thanks for sharing these patterns with
us.

The Potpouri Group sewing







This is the quilt we are making to use
for our banner. It is in a Country Thread Applique
Yearbook Vol 6 No 12 and Vol 7 Nr 1








These are all the needleturn Applique blocks
that I did and now the rest of the work is to
be done by the other members of the group.
It was agreed that I will do all the applique
as it is my favorite technique and they will do
all the other machine work.
What on earth is going on with this site, when I check
preview it shows my posting all untidy and not
the way I put the pictures. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!urgh
