Battlefield

 D-10, Paper pieced into units then hand pieced.
42 pieces.


At last - some time spent with my DJ.
It is nice to have your family over for a visit, especially when you are living abroad.
But I did miss my sewing, and now I miss my family.

So it is a kind of Battlefield with my emotion.

Crystal Star


Crystal Star - D-4 was paperpieced, handpieced and appliqué.
17 pieces.
It seems to work best for me to paperpiece into units and then handpiece the units together.
It has really been very hot here in Lux for the past weeks,
But this morning it was a bit coolish.

Happy stitching

Thank you all for stopping by

Patriot's Lantern

C-10 Patriot's Lantern. 37 pieces.


If I had paid an attention to the name of this block, Patriot's Lantern  I would have put some more yellow into it.
Next time I better look first at the name, then my block chart and number before I choose the colour.
