Kimm (Sheep Under Feet) posted her wonderful finished Lady on Horseback today. Which nudged me to post my far from finished endeavor. As you all know by now we are doing an adaptation of Lucinda Ward's Reconciliation Quilt. Here is a picture of that block.
Mine measures 18 x 18.5 and I'm using as many worms as possible, which range in size from #5 to #8.5. All the tree wool is newly cut and the sky is as many worms as possible but also cutting thin undesirable wool (normally) to fill for color variation. Using the thin since it won't be on the floor.
I decided to hook fall leaves as there seemed to be an abundance of those colored worms available. Will they stay? Not sure as the green really does show up better doesn't it? So who knows what reverse hooking may have occurred when you see it next.
Am missing our friend Lauren (Rugs and Pugs) but am sure she and son are having warm reunion since he couldn't get the flight to see her at Christmas. Am also sure she will have lots of stories of debauchery the excesses of the left coast and the city that never sleeps. If you're reading this Lauren, have fun and safe travels home.
To the rest of my friends, happy hooking or for you Robin, happy stitching!
