TWO JANUARY FINISHES, et al

 
Fiona's reading quilt,
bound and labeled
below↶↶↶↶

AND
Willa's reading quilt
and her label
↧↧↧↧
I used their favorite colors
for the borders and bindings.
I thought this fabric was really 
cute for the labels...;)))

**************************
I have also been working 
on my "Down the Garden Path";
and I have added stitching along the
rocks on the path and
some beading on the 
turquoise sari ribbon.

I am working my way down the 
fabric getting background patches
sewn down.

Here is a lovely scrap that I
coffee dyed along the right side that
I  used the buttonhole stitch on...
varying the width....

This is a leftover from my 
Crazy quilt that was 
originally all white...

We get our next prompt on the
1st Wednesday in February.
I will continue to outline the rocks on 
my path and to sew it down.

I think you can see the stitching here...
I still have a lot of background edges
to be anchored down...but
I don't want to add much more
until get the next prompts...

**********************
We actually got to see the sun shine
for about 3 hours today, but the clouds
continue to come in and the wind
is whipping up this afternoon...
