Welcome to a new year with our Stitchers Plus blog.
There were eight of us in attendance for our first official meeting for the year. Lots of general chit chat, planning for the comming year, and lots of show & tell, .
First up we have Sheila's brooch. Made in a summer school class with Karma Bains
Next is the quilt that Sheila made from scraps of silk fabric.
Wendy had also been to summer school, attending the "Image To Stitch" course by Effie Mitrofanis. This is Wendy's sample of couching stitches using silk threads.
Robyn had been working on finishing three more squares for her biscornu pin cushion
Susan had been practising her crocheting with this colourful beanie. The article in "Interweave Crochet Accessories" - "Circle In A Perfect Hat - How to Create Your Own Beanie Pattern", was used to make her own and very first beanie. Made in a hand dyed wool, using double crochet and a reverse crochet edging.
Donna's "Blue Boquet" can be seen on her personal blog , made with buttons & embroidery on felt. There are plans to mount it, & see what, if any, more work is required.
Jenny's play with filet, teneriffe lace & bullion picots are also on her own personal blog.
Let's see what fun March will bring.
