When two quilters and stitchers come over for a weekend, we do our own show-and-tell, talk about threads, fabrics, designers and inspiration. We enjoy some good food and good wine and revel in the pleasure of some time off the real world.
Needless to say that I have been impressed by the beauties they both brought along with them :-)
We had also decided to make a simple project as a memory of these two special days.
We picked up the Think-Of-Me Heart Sewing Case project from Maggie Bonanomi's latest book Thistle Down Moon. To tell you the truth, it was not as easy as it was supposed to be because working with vevelt can be challenging!!
Here is my version and I like it a lot. A perfect match in style with the velvet peapod pincushion.

Whatever the place on earth you live in, whatever the season you are enjoying right now, I wish you all a happy holiday season.
David , ce petit ouvrage est superbe et j imagine la difficulté avec le. Travail du velours...mais il faut avouer que le résultat en valait la peine...un petit bijou! Comme d habitude je suis admirative ...je vous souhaite également de très bonnes fêtes de fin d'année.
ReplyDeleteJ'en bave avec le velours, mais le résultat en vaut la peine ! J'ai presque terminé le mien, et je te le montre demain... Encore merci ! Bises
