Reveal Day

Wow, the summer has flown by! I did one thing with fabric this summer and that was the quilt challenge for Tangled Textiles. Here's how mine turned out, along with a photo of the binding audition..... for more photos that I took as I was working through this quilt check out this link.

For this challenge Lisa dyed a beautiful piece of fabric for each of and sent it along with some yarns and charms. Our challenge was to incorporate here fabric and embellishments into our piece. Check out what everyone else came up with at Tangled Textiles blog.

Reveal Time: Vzhlédnout

It's reveal day over at Tangled Textiles. Our topic was 'Look Up'. I've written about this piece over at Tangled Textiles where you'll also find lots of fun and creative interpretations from the other members!

Cleo kept me company, waiting patiently as I did the finishing touches this weekend.

Reveal Day at Tangled Textiles

Here are some additional photos that I had mentioned over at Tangled Textiles. I had so many layouts to choose from when I decided to do a tic-tack-toe dual of machine vs hand. Here are just a few.

I wanted the hand to win for once as it never wins with me; I always choose the machine whenever possible even though I do want to do more hand stitching. So I struggled with hand stitching the cord until I found a glove made it so much easier. Then I found I didn't like it and the machine won again.

I didn't get to free motion on our last challenge so I made up for it this time. I used one of my hand-dyed fabrics for the back.

And the front finally came together like this ....

Head over to Tangled Textiles and see the wonderful pieces the ladies came up with! I am feeling very humbled by what they have created!
