Creative inspiration.

My Peonies are just a pleasure this year.  They are all full of flowers, the sun is shining and we have blue skies.

Love Entwined:

 All the French knots on the hearts are done.

Started them last year, then packed away my LE to work on projects which needed to be finished.

The center is now done.
Finding the Way:

 The binding is on, the quilting is almost done.

 The batting for this one is polyester, as it has to be shipped and the weight had to be kept as light as can be.

 The down side to working with this batting, it makes my skin itch. Once it is enclosed between the fabric layers, this is no longer an issue.   So as soon as the quilt was quilted enough, the binding was sewn on.  It is been quilted on my lap, so no hoops involved.  It is also more portable, which has allowed me to move it to were the coolest spot is in the house.

The quilting is not done yet, another week of quilting and then it will be done.  It is a queen size quilt.

This bowl was made from the base of an apricot tree. This won a few awards.
