I have been absent from the web since a while due to many family obligations, and especially taking care of my grand-son. No quilting or knitting these days, just a little spring gardening.
I did this drawstring bag five years ago for my little niece. Since then she is carrying it everywhere she goes. The lovely flower fabric is Anna Maria Horner's. I followed the print lines to embroider it.
On the fourth picture you can see the border of my Kaffe Fassett Fan quilt.
Wat lovely and Nice bag :0))!
ReplyDeleteThe Flowers and strawberries beautyful Too!
I really like the technique of embroidery along fabric design. Years ago I made a throw for my MIL using the technique but that was long before I took pictures of my work. How silly back then.
ReplyDeleteLife has a way of making us choose our priorities. I always chose my family first too.

That little bag is just beautiful Christine; isn't it wonderful to see something you made being so well-loved and used? Beautiful garden photos!
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful drawstring bag, I love the fabric you have used. Now, your wonderful fruit and flower philtres - beautiful - are they taken in Athens or France?
ReplyDeleteThe bag is beautiful, and reflects your spring garden. I hope everything is well with your family.
ReplyDeleteThe drawstring bag is super pretty, Christine, I wouldn't part with it either. And how pretty your garden looks! The very best of spring.
