I am making good progress on the 3D quilt. I have several triangles made and I couldn't resist laying a few out together to see how things are looking.
This is how the triangles will be sewn together in columns.
So then I just had to lay a few more loose strips around to check the color contrast.
I am happy enough with how it's looking.
Speaking of colorful...here is a cross stitch piece that the Sasquatch finished up one recent afternoon when his electric went out after a storm. No TV, no internet, no A/C...and too hot to do much of anything else.
Awww, cute!
He said this was a quick and easy kit to do since the design was printed on the canvas...no counting stitches. He bought it,and some others, on a website called " aliexpress ". Their items ship straight from China.
His stitching puts mine to shame. The back of his work looks as neat as the front...no big raveling knots like mine - all the ends are woven in. Just take a look....
So tidy and precise! It would be a shame to cover it up with a frame.
Well, it's sewing time for me. I'll have to wake up Puss. She is sleeping in this window next to my desk and I need to close it now.
Wakey, wakey...
