PATCHWORK LOVES EMBROIDERY S.A.L. - Project #1 Home Pillow

Its always exciting to start a new project and I'm like a bull at a gate, charging full steam ahead.  Dont worry I will slow down as I usually do but I am determined to finish everything I start for this Sew A Long.

Deciding on which project to begin with, that a hard one.....ummmm let me see, I will do the Home Pillow first:-

I picked up some coordinating material whilst on holidays in Queensland earlier this year and I think it will be perfect.


Finished....Project #1
I especially love the quilting detail that Gail puts on her projects.  I used a candlewicking thread that I had from a previous quilt and it adds the finishing detail.

Looking forward to the next project, which for me, will be the Stitch With Love sewing folder.

  5. I love how there are many colors of red floss instead of just one like I have seen on any other rework project. Gorgeous...down to the flower buttons!
