Linking up with Anthea at Hibiscus Stitches for CTTY again
I am pleased to say that my Gardener Girl is complete and has been put away safely until Christmas. Here she is.
A close up of the embroidery.
I enjoyed working on this design which came from Lilipopo

FNSI
Many thanks to Wendy for hosting us again for our Friday night sewing fun - do pop over to Wendy's blog to see what everyone got up to.
It was another grey, wet day in the Dordogne so sewing fun got under way early here.
First up for me was this Jenny of Elephantz sampler panel that I had stitched before Christmas.
I fell in love with it as soon as I saw the pattern!
It needed a patchwork frame to turn it into a mini quilt and it ended the day looking like this.
The rest of my evening was spent working on this UFO from 2012.
I had completed about 95% of the hand quilting and then folded it away and ignored it for 2 years! So it is a high priority finish for this year.
Not a brilliant photo but I think you get the idea. I completed a couple of these curly shapes last night and will crack on with a few more this evening.
Hope your weekend is going well and have a great Sunday.
