Ribbons From The WNC State Fair

 I'd never entered the State Fair 

even though my friend, Joy encouraged me each year as she did.

That is until, Joy passed away and now

I enter each year in her honor.  

You can read about this knitted fabric quilted purse here.

 And this reversible Clergy Stole 

is for sale in my Etsy Shop.

 This is the reverse side.

 AND - this wall hanging also won a blue ribbon.

I'm so humbled and excited that my art found favor at the Fair.

Fun At The Fair

Created for hubby's office and as a class sample

for the Free Style Cobblestone technique that I teach, 

 this piece now can finally go to hubby's office.

All hand pieced and hand quilted,

this piece will now be for sale.

Let me know if you are interested.

Now that the Fair is complete,

I can use my new purple purse 

while the quilted art leaf bowl will be for sale.   

#30 More Blessed To Give Challenge

If this blue scarf looks just like another one made recently for the More Blessed To Give Challenge,

it is from the rest of the yarn.  Now onto new yarn and another give away next week.

Knitting Fabric

I began knitting my purse on these size 8 needles and it was really tight. So...

I restarted it on these bigger needles and it's much easier.

Knitted Purse Fabric

GW Boutique (Goodwill) was the spot where I found this batik rayon fabric which I plan to cut into 1/4 inch strips and knit into my next purse!  I'm thinking the waist ties would be great for the shoulder strap.  Stay tuned.
