Stitchers Angel...first project....Designed by Helen from Hugs and Kisses...lovely little Dilly Bag....this is my first bash at needle turn applique using freezer paper, I know it is a little dodgy, lots of room for improvement and it is only an oval but it is finished which is a bit of a plus...the thread I have used on this little stitchery was a variegated hand dyed thread, very nice to stitch with....I did buy this from the lovely Kerry at Cottage On The Hill...right at this moment we are in for a huge storm......lots of thunder the sky is very black...we do need the rain so much I hope it pours....have a great day everyone...
I like the simplicity of it.
ReplyDeleteso pretty. i love the flower shape
ReplyDeleteThat is lovely . Did you say rain , let it bucket down please !
ReplyDeletelooking good so far Peg............we got an inch of rain here last night and it is stormy around now too.......
ReplyDeleteIts not dodgy at all you've done very well, it looks great.
ReplyDeleteYou can have some of our rain if you want ! just tell me when and I'll send it over. he he

And here I was wondering how you got that oval so perfectly shaped without the use of the fusible web I would need...
ReplyDeleteYou've done a nice starting job on this lovely design.
Peg it looks very nice. YOu did a lovely job.
ReplyDeleteHi Peg, have just got back from a week at my Mum's in Sydney and....as always its a joy to catch up on your sewing and cooking!!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see your first Stitchers Angel design...sooooo different from mine. I did mine in blue on white bleached calico. I decided to do it as a stitchery...my favourite work. I used my Mothers sewing machine to make it up, so it will go in the mail in a day or two. Will put a post on my blog when my partner receives it.
Hugs..Judith

Thats a cute bag Peg ... I think your needleturn turned out great :o). I've never done it either, might be time I gave it a try too ;o).
ReplyDeleteHey, when you're done with that storm maybe you could send it up our way ;o). It's been pretty dry in Brissy lately too!!
Hugs,
Joy ;o)
Very cute! Love the variegated thread too. Sounds like a great day to stay in and do some stitching.
ReplyDeleteYour applique and stitching is great. Don´t be unhappy with it.
ReplyDeleteLoved it!! and I like how you went for a different color instead of the pink... it turned out beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend...
Take care and God bless,
^A^ngel...
I don't know about the 'dodge' Peg, I think it looks wonderful! This one's still on my backburner - I'm attempting the needlecase first, and quite pleased with how it's turning out. Love your colour choices too.
ReplyDeleteEyes up to the skies for more 'productive' rain this season.

ReplyDeleteIt looks lovely Peg, I am participating in the stitchers angel too. It was also the 1st time I have done needleturn and was reasonably happy with it:) I may post a picture of mine soon...
ReplyDeleteLOVELY!!!!!!!! Needleturn applique frustrates me no end. Stay safe in the storm - praying you get good rain!
