here is my mini for april....
bought the background fabric while in Maine and loved it....only found half yard but it was enough. Chose the pink as there is a tiny bit of blush in the print, tho difficult to see on this view. wish i could have found more but didn't. glad i'll have this to use and enjoy. linking up with
wendy and the other monthly mini gals! *** what else have i done? finished my needle book....
looks big but it's about 5x6 inches with plenty of space for all my needles...borrowed a jigsaw puzzle from the craft room but lost interest; need to return to my basting list. hoping to embroider the butterfly antennae this weekend so that can get basted...pulled some fabrics to sacrifice for a back for the batiks top. as a hand quilter, pieced backs can be a nuisance but in the spirit of frugality, will forego a purchase. few other projects in the works, depending on what calls to me....getting antsy for warmer weather and shedding the fleece pants until fall....
A very pretty monthly mini, Grace. Such a lovely background fabric, and the color combo is beautiful.

ReplyDeleteI love that you hand quilt. I hope it does not become a lost art. I haven't even done it in years.
