Here is something I'm working on.
I'm using fabric from the fabric swaps.

Posted - Apr 29 2024 : 1:28:18 PM Heather, that looks great! I look forward to seeing your next one. I know what you mean about color changes. My yarn always gets tangled no matter how hard I try to avoid it.

I was inspired by Krista's corner to corner crochet projects. I learned how to do it by making a baby blanket:
I'm working on a pattern with a picture in it now. Not sure I like all the color changes LOL!

Posted - Apr 24 2024 : 8:22:22 PM Shennendoah I have been snuggling up in my fluffy robe and box of tissues , reading through a stack of books from our local library..
I think you will enjoy this book. It has basic and advanced stitches as well as stitching with seed beads and silk ribbon. Maybe your local library has a copy if not check out a web site called Thrifty Books..

Posted - Apr 20 2024 : 6:23:50 PM Wow Krista great work! I’m working on my beginner embroidery badge. I embroidered as a kid and young adult but hadn’t picked up again for at least a decade. I’m a little rusty and trying out a few new stitches thanks to this embroidery book I picked up. I also used a free Pinterest pattern. Tried to use the red pencils and transfer paper but could not get it to work. Did a pen instead. So hard to keep the fabric taut while tracing. But I still think it’s off to a good start.

Posted - Mar 22 2024 : 3:45:41 PM Regular buttons and buttonholes on quilted might be too bulky but what about buttons with loops? Or maybe eyelets and laces?

Posted - Mar 22 2024 : 3:30:43 PM Grace -
I have that Daisy Kingdom pattern and another wrap apron pattern that is similar. I thought of using them, but The armholes are a bit lower and I thought they might be too low. I used a quilted vest I have and made a pattern. I'm using scrap fabrics first, and may try both ways and see which fits best.
Judith -
Exactly, but I am thinking of making it with no seams except for the shoulder seams. I have also thought about making one or both shoulder seams closing with buttons,but don't know if that would be too bulky. What do you think?
