RR details

This is the work I did for Moira. It is nearly time to mail this block on to the next artist, to add her touches.

This first section, I let the fabric do the work, just wanted to frame it a little and add a few beads to help "pop" the design. My addition include the two seam treatments on either side of the aqua print. The right side is a Sassa Lynne thread and the left is from Susan's thread collection dedicated to the mom's in her moms quilt.

Using the same fabric as inspiration again, I decided to do a paisley, this thread is a rayon thread called Stef Francis, Susan gave it me last summer. It is a bear to work with but I love the colors and they were perfect for this block.















An over all look at the block, it is a beauty and this picture in no way does it justice.















A sneak peak

Here is a sneak peak at what I have been up to lately, I have to warn you all.....................
NEVER......SAY.......NEVER...............you see what happens.......I wasn't ever going
to make jewelry................nor was I ever going to crazy quilt.................you'd think I learn.

TA..........DA.............














You may remember a while back I mentioned making beads from herbs. These beads are made from rose petals. I have begun to string them with crystal beads, I think it is going to be pretty, pretty fancy, too. I also have made myself a mom/grandma necklace, but the pictures were not any good so I will have to show it to you later.

More to come,
