Before I start today's blog allow me to introduce myself, hi!
Today has been a rather good day have managed to complete a good couple of projects and still have time to return back to my old faithful of a project, the Quilt. Which almost sounds like a really bad horror movie...I suppose the synopsis would be a quilt becomes animated and smoothers people in their sleep, starting with an unsuspecting little old lady......Sounds horrifying but cosy at the same time.
And here is the stitching then, above is a clock I have just completed for my little baby nephew, Leo. For his brand new look nursery. I get to see him tomorrow, so lots of squidges to him. Below is a clock I have just completed for my friends young boy. The only thing I am not sure about this is the silver wave, I might do some post surgery and remove them, and see if I have something pirate like that I could sew in its place. This could be a little difficult as it's now been mounted...the other option is to sew a few more waves at the top and bottom of the clock to balance it out and stop it looking weird. I shall leave it tonight and come back to it later.
Finally this is how the quilt is looking these days, you can't see much from these images but I have done the centre, the first ring round that square and now on the next row...if that makes sense? Anyway, soon as this blog post is completed that's what I'll get back to doing. I hope to god I can get this completed by Christmas. It would be nice!!
Tell me what projects your doing?!
I love your clocks ! They are fabulous. I am trying to finish off a cross stitch alphabet I have been stitching for ages. I just seem to get distracted by lots of other projects.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt looks great, what a lot of work. As for the projects I'm doing, the answer to that is tooooooo many, why can I not finish things!!!!!!! Even with many projects on the go I'm still looking and thinking about new ones;-)
ReplyDeleteI love all of it..never seen the clock idea before and love it..good luck on the quilt it is a beauty..
ReplyDeleteWow your quilt looks amazing! Certainly puts the one I have been working on to shame :D I haven't seen stitched clocks before - they're really striking and unique. (Oh dear, I just realised there's a bad pun there - sorry!) Now following having come over to say hello from We Make London :D
