Work In Progress Wednesday.
Tvistsöm Cushion
I completed the stitching with a border of five red rows.
There is a subtle variation in the red as I worked towards using up my stash.
I damp stretched the canvas and pressed in the hem. The back looks quite interesting - abstract mess!
Next step is to stitch on a backing of red wool and fill the cushion.
Until then here is a picture of its size and shape.
Here is another project that is almost finished, a few more beads are needed.
I attached the Shirtwaist Button, previously made, added a few details in metallic thread and worked a Whipped Half Wheel.
Log Cabin Challenge
December is a busy month and I only had time to make five new blocks. Total number is now 315.
Queenie, they are looking awesome!

The cushion is great! Your projects coordinate in color.
ReplyDelete315 Blocks! I am inspired Queenie!
ReplyDeleteYes, the back of your T cushion is an abstract piece of art in its own right!
Your T cushion work is amazing, as is your CC block, beautiful stitches and colors.
Looking so good and I love your signature color scheme!
ReplyDeleteYour woven cushion is going to be so beautiful! It is such a gorgeous labor of love! How long did it take from the very first?
ReplyDeleteFlashing Scissors has said it all. You must be pleased with your outcomes. The reverse side of the cushion makes me think of Starry Starry sky. The half wheel is pretty too.
ReplyDeleteI love all the progress. I'm glad I don't have to pick my favorite of the crazy blocks because each one is so lovely. The log cabins remind me a lot of the year of triangles. Wish my progress could do as well.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on finishing the cushion. It's looking good!
