This was one of them:
It looks like cross stitch - which I have never done - but I thought the words we appropriate for quilters too.
My hands have been sewing up some more stash blocks:
4 one colour 5" string blocks, 4 Spool blocks and 5 more Twinkler blocks.
I have sets kitted out ready to sew and I make a few when I feel like doing so. Sometimes I make the Spool blocks in Leader and Ender style but the other blocks I make as a proper project. Really because I like to lay out the Twinkler blocks in pairs and make two at a time (Bonnie Hunter style, chasing each other) so I can web each block. Of course this helps to line up the seams when sewing the rows together.
When I am making the String blocks I make my stitch length much smaller so taking off the paper foundation is not a problem. Not suitable for making Leader and Ender style or I would be forever altering the length of my stitch!
Here they are:
Must have a count up and see how many of each type of block I have.
liking the tea towel far too nice to dry dishes on, think I would have it pinned on my kitchen wall. Lots of blocks done too, not done a twinkler but vaguely think I might have the ruler for making one, should start doing user enders I just use scrap fabric.
ReplyDeleteHow good to have positive messages as you dry the dishes. You've been busy making pretty blocks.
