Instead I woke up with sore throat, sniffy nose, and terrible muscle aches... So it was one of those 'nesting' days - a little sewing thrown in between naps and soup-making. I will live.
I do have a few things to show you..... I started another linen wholecloth quilt. This is almond-colored dupioni silk - pardon the blue marking pen... You can see I have done some of the detail work on the left inside the feathers....
Here is a better detail shot. I love how the dupioni sews up.
and here is a photo with the vintage hankie that will go on this piece.... this is quite old, and delicate.
The center of the hankie is not in great shape; I am looking for something creative to applique over it - we'll see... so fun....
My blocks for "Sarah's Revival" by Sue Garman are starting to fill the wall - oh I do love the them all, each one is so graceful and beautiful.
Happy Sunday evening to everyone!

I love your wholecloth, the texture is fabulous!
Each of your projects is so different and so wonderful! I hope you are feeling better soon, I prescribe a nap under a quilt.
Your appliqué is so beautiful. I think a dark brown would look pretty on the center of the hankie.
The whole cloth quilting is fascinating. I would love to hear more about that. And your red applique blocks are gooooorgeous. I LOVE applique and I never do it. I really need to sit down and do more of it. Happy Quilting.
