I've been using the scraps left over from my Triangle Tiles quilt to frame some muslin for embroidery. I've finished the embroidery on another block and have more prepped with embroidery transfers. My husband has had a lot of diagnostic testing done lately and this has been a nice take along project for me. I've tried reading a book but I'm so nosy I have to listen in to all the conversations in the waiting room. I can't do that while reading but I can do that while embroidering.
More later.
Your embroidery is beautiful. God bless your husband in the testing, hoping for good results!
ReplyDeleteLove the embroidery. I hope to get back to that in the near future. You are making me itchy for it!
ReplyDeleteHa ha! I completely understand. Hope things work out well with the testing.
ReplyDeleteThe fabrics are nostalgic seeming to me and the embroidery totally complements them. Together just lovely.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes for a good outcome! In the meantime, I have to ask you about the fabric you are using to frame this embroidery. Is this vintage feedsack fabric? Or repro? I'll tell you why I ask after I hear back from you.
ReplyDeleteHope things go well for your husband. Good idea to take embroidery along to the appointments.
ReplyDeleteThose really do look like vintage feedsacks. Good idea to take some kind of handwork to the appointments. I hope everything goes well.
ReplyDeletePretty and delicate embroidery. I like the way it crosses over into the border.
ReplyDeleteYour right you know...
ReplyDeleteWorks at home with company also!!!!
While it would be rude beyond belief to pick up a book or an Ipad game at home with someone else there, I can pick up hand work and enjoy the presence and company of others ....
Beautiful!! I love embroidery with patchwork.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful stitching! I love embroidery in my quilts
ReplyDeleteLovely work! Like others I like this mix of patchwork and embroidery a lot. I listen in all the time - glad I'm not the only one.
ReplyDeleteHoping all goes well with the tests!!!!! xo. And you’re hilarious about the (beautiful) embroidery while listening to others’ conversations! I know it’s just a form of people watching and can be very enlightening or entertaining. As for me, I’d rather have earbuds in and listen to music. That’s not a deficiency or a brag (at least, I don’t consider it one), but just a manifestation of how we’re all different.
ReplyDeleteI wondered about the "eavesdropping" in the title and I'm so glad you explained it!!!! I totally understand! It's just so easy when everyone is in a small space!
