I thought I would show my "Wings and Pretty Things" some love last night when I linked up with all the other bloggers over at WENDY'S at Sugarlane Quilts
No actual stitching was done but....tracing....
Bias strips cut and pressed....
Templates made and applique pieces traced and cut out, then pin and basted in place.
Ohhh I tell a lie basting is stitching lol! Because I basted 3 hexies too.
So I am now set to start some applique....May just be my Sunday Stitchers project to work on tomorrow.
I have been taking my Beyond the Garden Gate with me to school pick up and block 7 is coming along.
That's it from yours truly!
Thanks to Wendy for hosting us once again.
I hope that you are spending your weekend how you choose.....
Namaste and Blessings Michelle xxx
Preparation does take up a lot of time, but we know it is worth it so we can enjoy our stitching.
