Hope everyone is having a great "short" week! I've been super busy at work and at home, but I wanted to check in and post a few pictures of what I've been working on whenever I've been able to sneak away for a few crafty minutes. This is basically an experiment in free motion embroidery (flag banner), rough edged applique (flag banner), "regular" applique (brown "tree limb"), and hand embroidery (cat and owl). I used sequins for the eyes and I'm afraid my little owl looks a bit cross-eyed! Maybe he needs glasses?
Just for the record, An Owl and a Pussycat is my first attempt at real embroidery. It was sure slow going. I've started the Embroidery Project classes I won, but I'm a few weeks behind. I'm excited about the projects I've seen so far; I just hope I can catch up!
Tootles for now!
