Hello,
A little birdie told me...
That if you download too many patterns from the net you will end up with nothing but a pile of papers and a never ending list of projects you want to do. So this is why I turned two lots of patterns into the one tablecloth.
This is the result of
Michelle's and
Vicki's stitchery designs. The tablecloth measures 31 inches square. I hand quilted it and there is lots of hand sewing in this one including chain stitch, back stitch and button hole.
I was given some lovely buttons by my Sister Chris when she was over from New Zealand in January. Included in the buttons were lots of heart shapes. I put one between each heart on the border.
For the backing I used a lovely fabric in pink with the littlest white hearts. So I have come to the conclusion that two into one does go. Please excuse the wrinkles on the fabric in the photo's. I gave the cloth a rinse to get rid of the blue ink from the marking pen but haven't got around to pressing it.
Happy days.
Bev C

Hello Bev,
Wow, you made me love a neon green for a quilt. It turn out great and those embroidery design are adorable. I also have way too many patterns that I downloaded from the computer. They are in a large pocket folder waiting for me to use. I need to go through them. Have a lovely day.

How clever to combine two patterns into one.Looks lovely Bev.
That is lovely, Bev. The hearts look like happy hearts - exactly as hearts should look. :)
What fun projects! I love the bright colors on the front, with the nice contrasts in the stitchery. Love the backing fabric, which goes so nicely with the designs on the front.
Very lovely Bev. Hugs,xx.
