My Autumn Ojos is finally
finished;))))
That little piece on the right
is what was left of my binding...
This was a leftover
binding strip from
an older project...
Phew--
I just made it
👌👏
Below is the reverse basket fabric side...
I have had this print for ages...
happy I found a home for it as
I have been "petting" it for
a long time...;)))
I am happy with how the
Criss-Cross hand quilting shows up
here...and that dark
binding picks up the deep
purple/maroon on the
baskets...

I am trying to finish up all my
UFO's--
one by one.
Each day when I
enter my room I go to
where they are hanging
on the side of my fabric closet
and
pick the one
nearest the finish line
to work on next.
[Ojos just needed binding--
why did I take so long to finish it?]
****************************
I sewed light blue strips
on all my crumb blocks:
I want to make this a
Chinese Coin type
of strippy so I
am in the process of
choosing fabric to separate
all the strips...
Here are two choices I will
be looking at....I am not
really thrilled with anything
I have put up as yet....
So this is marinating...
Stay Tuned...

I want an embroidery project to go along
with my machine sewing to work on
in the evenings in 2023
Here is the one I have chosen:
Isn't it just the cutest thing?
(finished picture from site listed below)
I found it strolling through
Etsy at:
"charlottelyons" shop;
I had made a birth picture
for each of my grandgirls using
her pre-printed embroideries and
they were really fun to make...
I had a little Christmas $$$
leftover and I bought this:
Here is what the pre-printed
cloth looks like...nice and clear.
I will be excited to get this in the mail
and choose my threads....
In our former home I had a really
big garden and I thought
this would be a fun
memory piece for me
to work on as I can no
longer garden...
I hope you are enjoying this brief week
between holidays ..
Oh....
and....
I also was
able to put all my Christmas
fabrics away; and we have taken
our decorations down for the year...
