Works in Progress

I have gotten one more fall flower done. This has been a work in progress for a while.
Here is another sneak peek. I have been making yo yos with my new AccuQuilt GO.
Almost finished with this applique. Mixing wool and cotton fabrics.
This one is actually finished but I can't show it just yet. Isn't that a fun way to sew on rick rack?
With Passion,
Carrie P.

If only the GO would stitch the yo-yos after cutting them out!

These sneak peaks are so tempting - I almost don't want them to stop. Love the ric rac - french knots and I don't seem to get along.

Hugs - Marie

Some tempting peeks of your W'sIP... and your photography skills are quite good too. I really do love that very clever way of attaching rick rack!

A perfect fall flower Carrie and I really like how you stitched down the rick rack. I will have to remember that.

What a strikingly beautiful fall (orange) flower. And the rick rack? Those are french knots holding it in place right? I love it!

I can tell, just from the sneak peek that I'm going to really like all of your projects! Attaching the rickrack with french knots is sooo cute...an idea I'll probably use someday!

Everything you've shown in your photos is lovely, especially the way the rick rack is sewn down. Thanks for that tip.

You must be keeping busy with that Accuquilt, you lucky girl. Enjoy!

Robin said...

That is a very cool way to sew on ric-rac! I also love the way you staged the flower block with the orange flowers in the background. Gorgeous!
