Here is my bunting hanging in place...
anchored on my two wrought iron
candleholders....
I had originally made 11 and it turned out
WAY too long for this spot...
SO I cut if down and now have
four to start a new one for a gift...
I will be leaving this up through Christmas.
😇💚🌝⛄
Here is a long shot of my fireplace
which is
just to the left of the dining room and
open to the kitchen area separated
by an eating counter...
sets in the center of my bunting...
The lovely picture over the fireplace was one of
my mother-in-laws that she received as
a wedding gift...
I just love the soft serenity of it..
***************************
I have switched my little corner
in my sewing room
from hand sewing projects to
paper crafting for a while;
my hands really are in need
of a long resting period
after making all these flags
and also working on
quilting "Sunrise Sunset".
I will finish the border quilting
on that quilt..
on my machine I think...
***************************
Meanwhile, I will be still sewing my neutral
Ojos blocks on Helga and
working in my old
"En Masse" gluebook,
begun in 2023
↓↓↓↓
I am hoping to get it finally finished up...
[I need to make a list of items for
pages that need finishing.]
And....
Here are a few examples of finished pages:
faces
models
umbrellas
to show you a very few
examples of my collections...
Such a relaxing way to
spend an afternoon...
;)))
Hugs on this dark, gray day

ReplyDeleteYUM!!! ;))))))))))
The bunting turned out so nice. And the lace in the center makes it perfectly balanced. SO many faces!
ReplyDeleteI love your bunting! I have a few pieces from cutter quilts and I am considering a bunting for my studio using them …thank you for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteYour bunting looks great hanging across your fireplace. So festive! You've made a lot of progress on your journal. I bet it's nice to mix up a few different crafts. Definitely too dark today!
ReplyDeleteI love the look of your bunting hanging across the fireplace like that, Julierose! I bet it is fun to look at up close. Wishing you lots of enjoyable crafting time, whatever you choose to work on!
ReplyDeleteYour bunting is so perfect with the brick of the fireplace. The piece with lace definitely needed the center spot in it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun place to hang your bunting! I hope to change the house to Christmas this weekend... but the outside bushes need trimming... so the kids can do the outside!
ReplyDeleteYour bunting looks amazing, Julierose ! I agree the block with your Grandmere's lace should be front and center.- Just precious. It is always so much fun to see your progress on your journals. I have not worked on mine in a spell . Yours is so very special. Have a blessed day. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteLove your bunting, Julierose! So cute and unique. Fun journal pages too, what caught my attention are all the books, and umbrellas.
ReplyDeleteLove your bunting and also the En Masse journal.
ReplyDeleteLove that bunting. And it looks fabulous where you have decided to hang it. Way to go! I think you may have inspired me to turn some old crazy quilting round robin blocks into bunting! Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThe bunting is such fun!
ReplyDeleteYour bunting turned out wonderfully! And a bonus that you have the beginning of another one that someone else will appreciate.
ReplyDeleteThe bunting is beautiful, Julierose. Your fireplace area has some lovely treasures around it. Sounds like you have a lot to keep you busy while resting your hands.
