On the Seamy Side. About quilting and sewing, mostly. Monday, August 9, 2010. Delia Held a Giveaway and Look Who Won. This lovely piece was sun-painted by the generous and talented Delia of Delia's Place. The photo is hers, too. While you're there, look at her thread-painted lorikeet. Think I will try something similar-an applique of tree frogs? It measures 20 x11.5 inches, a perfect size. A good thing as I know I couldn't cut it. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). On the Seamy Side.

On the Seamy Side. About quilting and sewing, mostly. Friday, February 26, 2010. I planned to make only one but see so many possibilities! I could end up with a flock. This delightful pattern is by Nellie Durand at Nellie's Needles. You will find a slide show there of many amazing birds! Tuesday, February 23, 2010. Only one more big (six feet by six feet) sandwich waiting on the sewing table to be machine quilted. Then I think I will limit my projects to placemats-size for a while. ;o). On the Seamy Side.
