Fan finished, favorite stitch and a bird or two.....


We were able to get away for a couple days and the stitching time in the car allowed me to finish Connie's pink fan... now it is back on schedule.  It was a fun little piece.  She wanted the velvet at the top left unadorned.

 
   
I like a little action in my seams...some diagonal direction etc.  This is one of my favorite beginnings for vertical seams... and so much can be done with it...


















Also I have been working away at my motifs for the jacket every chance I get..

I like the delicate look of the fan block. And I like movement in seams too. Your birds are really coming along. I almost have the cardinal button beaded and ready to go on the block. Then I just have to make the holes in the back for joining the book pages together and I will have one done completely.
