Symmetry update
The third block of Symmety is finished. I think it's cool that the blue centers of block 1 & 3 (which have the exact same threads) look so different. The little black areas really stick out in block 1 while in block 3 they aren't so noticable. It's such fun playing with colors and patterns and seeing the results. This piece has such a masculine look to it even though there is lots of pink in it. I'm thinking it's the black and grey (colors I don't usually use) that are doing it.
Even though I'm having a really good time working on Symmetry, I need to put is down for awhile and get stitching on some other things. I have a hard time doing this -- putting such a fun piece down, that is. But then I get going on something else and I have a fun time stitching it also. Go figure ....
I finished the third part of the Solo Brode SAL. Aren't the little birds cute? This is such a pretty pattern (and another fun stitch - vbg).

Thanks for visinting my blog
ReplyDeleteYes those birds are cute!
Nice! At first I thought you'd switched to quilt making! The Brode piece is very pretty also.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks!
ReplyDeleteJudy at one time I wanted to learn how to make quilts but things didn't work out. It's probably best I didn't go that route, I'm lousy at sewing :)
