'tis the season for beef stew, that is........! It really hit the spot and will tast even better tomorrow! Fall is the season for soups and stews, isn't it??
Made a tiny bit of progress on the cross quilt....
Finished the Bear's Paw block for the guild's Blockery exchange....(i'm really likin' this block...!)
Took a very fun workshop with quilter Karen Turkes. 'Design Your Own Landscape' with her great interchangeable patterns and fusible.
Here she is on the right helping Mary with fabric choices...
And a couple of my favorite examples she brought...
Karen was helpful and patient and gave us all a lot of encouragement. Here's my project at midday and at day's end.....
The challenge now will be to do it justice with some decent free motion quilting to add more life and detail like Karen does.....I'll be working up my confidence to tackle that!! But the advice and instruction from a good teacher was invaluable. The sky/horizon is from one piece of great fabric purchased up at Delphine's in Gaylord Michigan--so glad to have the chance to use it!!
Enjoy your weekend all! Hope you get some sewing in....or make some stew! :-)
