I've completed the next embroidered block of the month on offer from Joy.
I think this one was technically for April. I might get caught up by the end of the program. Next up is Kindness. I still have to transfer the pattern for that one. I've been simply tracing the patterns onto the fabric with a soft pencil, up against our sliding glass door. It's easy enough but I don't get ideal results. I can't seem to even stay on a straight line for more than 1 cm these days. May have to recruit younger, steadier hands to transfer my patterns in the future. Not that I'm all that old mind you! I never could draw a straight line; the aging process isn't helping matters any.
There's a whole flock of us in this SAL, all around the world and working on our different projects. You can see what everyone else is doing by clicking on their links below. For those of you in the EU, I understand there will be a notice informing you of Blogger's privacy policies when you come to visit now. I think it's a one-and-done situation where you give your consent and then won't be bothered by the notice in the future. Oh, and Happy Memorial Day to those in the United States!
that's a lovely little heart!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet piece of embroidery! My screen door is also my Light box, some days Re better than others for tracing!
ReplyDeleteLove the tiny butterfly! I think both Google and the blogging platforms have automated the privacy notices very efficiently; can you imagine if you had to notify all your followers individually or lose them promptly? NIghtmare!
ReplyDeleteThis is very cute! There’s so many ways of transferring designs, just use what works for you!
ReplyDeleteI've invested in a couple of new tools. We'll see how well they work for me. ;-)
DeleteI love this! Very nice work and I can tell you took a lot of care with it, too!
ReplyDeleteThat embroidery is a beauty!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great.
ReplyDeleteI love these charming embroideries you do! Hope you are enjoying sunny Memorial Day weather.
ReplyDeleteI can't draw straight lines either... your block has turned out really pretty! xx
ReplyDeleteVery neat stitching, I made a light box out of a cheap box frame from Ikea with some battery LED lights inside (also Ikea!)
ReplyDeleteMy son did something like that so he'd have a light box for the work he does. I'm thinking I may have him do my tracing for me in the future. ;-)
DeleteLove the lettering on this one :-)
