Planted seeds for these when we could not find red cone flowers. The first flower is blooming and it is an intense orange almost red. The leaves are turning on the maple trees and fall is in the air.
Basted and layered the next quilt to be hand quilted, this one was made a while back and has been waiting for its turn to be quilted. Will make a start on it in the next week.
A parcel arrived yesterday with a special tool in it, which I will share more about soon.
The second diamond for Tahoe is done.
Sewed the next two strips together for the Bargello quilt.
Prepped two blue diamonds for the pretty quilt. All the pieces are being starched now as well, hoping to have more success with stabilizing all the curves.
The enders and leaders are all trimmed to the same size.
The snips and trimmings at the end of the top and tail process.
Last but not least, the mouse and apple is stitched...
I bought two red cone flowers in pots last year and they didn't come back to my disappointment
ReplyDeleteWe tried to find some, could not find any.
ReplyDeleteI was looking for purple coneflowers, but the garden centre was sold out in the spring.
ReplyDeletegreat job on moving your projects along!
ReplyDeletegreat projects and progress can be point on all of them. Your cross stitch project is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
ReplyDeleteWhew, that's a lot! I can tell you've been happily stitching away this week.
ReplyDeleteYou have quite the collection of projects, Maggie! Best of luck on making some good progress on them.
ReplyDeleteIt seams a lot, but it is broken up in chunks of time over the course of a week. Doing just one element, it will take a while before it is done.
