I was hoping to start a new project for FNWF, but alas, the postie did not deliver........hopefully my parcel will come on Monday. Instead I worked on some DJ blocks that I had prepared a while ago, and the start of a new mini. I really think I need to add some more medium tones.
I received some beautiful French General Rue Indienne charms from lovely Elyte. I could have just added them to my stash but decided it would be nicer to make a special project. So after some thought, out came my 1" clamshells. You may remember my clamshell purse here. They are small but very pretty when finished.
Today I have been busy on a woodwork project.........sewing related of course. Hope to have something to show by the end of the weekend.
Happy stitching,

ReplyDeleteI do love those 1" clamshells. They look very nice in the FG fabric. But then everything looks nice in FG fabric. Doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteI like your new red & white DJ blocks. Seeing the blocks made in the colors gives such good definition to the design of each block.
ReplyDeleteThose tiny clams are delightful! What a pretty purse they will make!
ReplyDeleteWood? Now you have me intrigued! Very pretty fabrics in the clamshells. Darling Dear Jane blocks, I like the idea of "sashing as you go".
ReplyDeleteYour work is just beautiful along with your choice of fabrics Susan !

Pretty clamshells. I have not made any before looks challenging. Love the blocks!
ReplyDeleteYour DJs are so cute, and I love your clamshells - we didn't get that particular range in the shop, those deep blues in it are a nice touch. Your sewing related woodwork project sounds intriguing - hope it went well and you can share it soon!
ReplyDeleteRue Indienne is a lovely range Susan...how good that you were able to use it straightaway in a project!
ReplyDeleteYour DJ and clams are gorgeous...great fabrics you are using....
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful little blocks and I love the ladder from the previous post too. So worth the effort involved in saving a piece like this
ReplyDeleteGreat projects. Love the fabrics for your shells.
ReplyDeletePerfect use for those fabrics.
