Weekend Show & Tell
We love seeing what our customers are making, and we had some great projects brought to the shop this weekend!
Laura brought this sweet little quilt to share…we had helped her pick out the fabrics for it not too long ago. She machine appliqued the vines and leaves with invisible thread, a first attempt, and it looked fantastic! I never seem to have much luck with invisible thread in my machine…
Brenda and Marty came for a visit from Macon, and Brenda shared a terrific Halloween quilt with us…oh, the variety of Halloween fabrics was amazing! And she had also included machine embroidered blocks of Halloween motifs throughout the quilt…here are a few (sorry for the blurry photos!)
After we ooh’d and ahh’d over the quilt, Brenda shyly mentioned that since we liked the quilt so much we’d probably love the witch that went with it…seems she had left it in the car. We made her GO GET IT! One word…A-W-E-S-O-M-E!
The detail on this Witch Doll was simply amazing…click the pictures to enlarge! Look at her striped legs and boots! And the black lace garter….be still my heart!
This was Brenda’s first dollmaking experience and she did a simply amazing job!
We love show & tell at Sweet Home…please bring your projects to share with us!

Some machines like invisible thread and some don’t tolerate it so well.
