I've finished my latest wool crazy piece. It came about from another piece I was working on and I decided to combine them together. Can see my initials, shh in the top right corner and the date 2010 below the Christmas tree.
I decided not to make it directional, to keep interest in it. I use a crescent moon and star along with my initials for my label on the back of most pieces I make. Here it was fun to incorporated them in the wool.I managed to cover the four seasons in this piece. This portion is mainly Autumn and Winter.
This area is mainly Spring and Summer. I used some original designs and adapted some from JoAnn Mulaly's Wool Crazy book.
As you may have noted, there is a snowflake button the the Christmas tree, as the piece fold up on itself. Because it is a Huswif Sewing Case.
Here is the inside, designed by our friend Kaaren Johnston from The Painted Quilt. I made mine a bit wider and did not curve the top as she did on her design. I also added an additional tulip pocket to hold a needle threader.
There are two pockets to hold addition things you may need for your next sewing project. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have making it. Now onto something new.
That is just too cute! Thanks so much for sharing, B=)

ReplyDeleteYou do great work. I love the textures.
ReplyDeleteWow... love it... I have made my base.. wasn't that crazy about it but I should just go with it rather than trying to "Plan" it to fit what I might applique ...you've given me the inspiration to just do it, as they say.. lol
ReplyDeleteWow, lovely! I have made my base but haven't gotten started with adding the applique..I'm afraid it won't look as good as those I've seen but I guess I just need to get started and it will come together. Thanks for the inspiration.
