HAND JIVE

Little Hexettes (sewed to the tune of "Little Coquette") work is done....now to applique it to a background...perhaps a leafy green garden?
*********************************************

I've Begun quilting the side triangles on Pomegranates in the Rain.....


This is a really long term project....so....

"Hand, hand, fingers, thumb, dum-ditty-dum-ditty-dum-dum-dum": this is pertinent to my
hand problems and hand working these days--it keeps running through my head--Dr. Seuss reminding me to put my work down frequently and to rest....;))) (Ah yes, my 2nd childhood...)

**************************************************************
My "Hot Summer's Day" wall hanging has gone up....
(Crooked photo--not hanging...;000) I truly enjoyed making this one a few years back--
Some piecing....on little telephone book squares of paper.....
with remnants of some favorite fabrics...

AND above.....
The start of my 3rd liberated basket quilt....

AND.. is this not the saddest picture...???;000 Absent friend................
                                               HELGA---where oh where have you gone?

Hugs, Julierose, La Blageuse (missing my machine-euse!!)

EDITED on June 30th--Dropping out of the temp project as the hexagon templates were not only difficult (if not impossible) to remove and  tore when I tried to remove them,
and totally distorted the edges of the little hexagons and left
so much glue residue that the project is unsalvagable...Live and learn...I couldn't even try to iron them
as the threads on the raw edges raveled too....aaarrrggghhh...not good....

And so it goes.....
