So for now it's mainly embroidery that I keep myself occupied with. Mr. T (Rex) above is part of a piece I'm making for an embroidery swap. I think it is turning out really and will show you the whole thing when my swap partner has received it. Even if it's slightly stressful it is great to make a piece outside your 'comfort zone' so I'd like to encourage everyone to take part in one of these embroidery swaps!
Oh and in case you missed it, I left the Feeling Stitchy blog (see my goodbye post here) and I was touched by all the kind comments here, there and everywhere. :) Incidentally my &Stitches partner in crime Carina also said au revoir. However we are planning some fun things for the &Stitches blog so please consider following us there. :)
The T-Rex is looking great. I did read your post on Feeling Stitchy and I so understand why you aren't blogging there any more. I love your work by the way.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Feeling Stitchy was important to me but it's nice to put my energy and ideas into the &Stitches blog now

Looking forward to seeing the whole T-Rex ~ he looks wonderful! It's good to go outside one's comfort zone. I'm doing a round robin with some quilting friends and it has been quite the challenge for me but I've learned so much. Not so uncomfortable as I was!
ReplyDeleteOh, and I added &Stitches blog to my reader ~ it's a great blog!
T Rex says 'thanks'! I haven't been brave enough for a quilting bee/robin yet, maybe I should try that too. :)
