Sunday morning in cloudy Colorado

Well, I’m working on my fairy this morning and my blog…. “In a Minute Ago” actually gave my blog a plug (gosh, I feel famous or something!).

What I find fun is that the internet brings together all of us with similar interests no matter where we are…it’s really really fun! So, I’m having fun blogging and reading other embroidery and quilting blogs…there are more out there than you would think.

So, back to my fairy…I’m trying to hand applique vintage velvet on as her hair…wow,this is interesting. Slippery, but the texture hides my stitches, soI don’t have to be as careful about that. Also, I’m going for a textural look, so if it buckles or folds it isn’t a problem (and I can TELL you this is a really good thing!)

I’m going to try to get more pictures of my stuff up today, please everyone be gentle…I’m still a beginner….not really very good yet, but I like doing it!
