Tuesday, September 20

Here it is, my completed Hearts Desire top.  I am quite pleased with it, it is a lovely design.
We are settled back in Florida, lots of gardening to do, but the unpacking is completed and I can almost find everything again!  Spent the morning doing a huge food shopping trip so we can settle in and spend our time playing again.  I have to search through my stash to see if I have an appropriate fabric for the backing, otherwise a trip to the quilt shop.
My Peaceful Pathways is coming along nicely, the center is completed, I just have to hand applique the hearts.  It really went together quickly.  I have hesitated a bit on the hearts, considering a machine embroidery design that I have.  But today, I cut the hearts for applique.  I really enjoy the peaceful handwork.
