So a new construction site has been started across the pond! I showed a pic on my last post of the homespun houses I have started putting together and although very late in joining the SAL, Anne has kindly invited me to come on board.
The reason for the delay? I had to bide my time until I came across the book here in the UK.
I am further behind than most and for that reason I will show 3 this month.
I think I have 1 more house to put together but I have a lot of windows still to do.
Initially I thought this would be a good project to practice my needleturn applique-just windows and doors, but between my lack of skill and the fact that homespun isn't straight to start with, I have wripped out more than I have stitched I think, but we shall persevere!
Go check out Anne's blog to see what others are doing and have a great weekend.
You have really caught up and the houses look great. I was ahead and now behind with "construction" so not sharing my blocks in December. Can't wait to see more of yours next month.
ReplyDeleteHi Shazy, good to hear from you - yes, it's great to manage a bit of stitching, it's so relaxing. I love your homespun house blocks, they're great ...... look forward to seeing the finished product!
