Small stitches, big smiles


The first of my Australian purchases, the Bronwyn Hayes stitchery Libby is done.
It was fun to do and I am looking forward to start the next. I have plans for these ladies :-)



This stitchery I finished early in May. I just have not taken a photo of it before today. I will make a cushion of it, but not right now.

The Watermelon quilt has been on the back burner for some days, as I have pulled a shoulder muscle, but it is getting better now and I will go back to quilting so the quilt can be done before Wednesday next week.

A special stitchery is in the making too, from one of my father's drawings, and so are more Nearly Insane blocks :-)

  2. Take care of your arm Hanne. (and that's me talking about that, me who still are sewing with a bad shoulder LOL)
    Curious what you are going to make of the stitcheryladies. Perhaps you should get in your car and visit Elverum some day. I am still home for three weeks.

  3. Lovely stitcheries. I must say that I am liking Bronwyn Hayes almost too much. I will add her to the list of things I need to do after we move.

  4. I just love the Bronwyn Hayes projects you ladies are doing. So much cuter than any redwork patterns I've seen here in the states. Obviously you ordered them from Australia so I must be able to do so also. Can you share the website with me please? I love all the stitcheries you are doing!

  6. Cute redwork lady - I'm looking forward to seeing your plan for them. I'm sure the stitchery from your father's drawing will be spectacular - will it be for a Father's Day gift?
