Serious sewing.

I missed last week at Harmony Hill. We're now into our fourth Thursday morning meet and September is almost over. Yesterday I could see that most of our members were back in attendance and some serious sewing was going on.

Judy brought in a basket of rosemary cuttings from her garden and Pamela immediately set about making a wreath.

                 I was reminded that I had something about the rosemary plant in a book at home.

              Judy was sketching trees, preparing for a silk painting demonstration this weekend.

Carolyn was crocheting the most exquisite little balls, it was very fine work.

Laura was embroidering little pictures, capturing the feel of the Mournes.

This embroidery in the hoop below is stitched on organza and then cut out with a heat tool.
Once the sheep are framed the little piece will be be placed outside of the frame.
Laura had a pile of these sheep pictures made and waiting to be framed and they were all lovely.

Here's one of the embroideries framed, showing how the little piece is positioned.

Mavis is working on some Indian embroidery samples. 

                                   There's a Banjara inspired quilt on Linda Kemshall's blog.

Anna is making a 'Lacy Heart' - a project taken from an old Stitch magazine.

These are Elizabeth's hexagons, nice Autumn colours and the pile is growing.

To make life easier she has been downloading and printing the hexagons ready for cutting out.
