Chenille Scarf

My crafting efforts haved slowed down considerably over the last couple months - too much going on in the other parts of life! Here's a chenille scarf I've been puttering away on, mostly while we're out at the cabin. Although it's difficult to see, I'm doing this is a small basketweave stitch...I really like the texture of this material!

Nature Quilt Completed


I completed the nature quilt this evening. In the end I had to rip out the hand stitching and quilt it with my machine. I'm learning that some materials slide around too much to be hand-quilted effectively!
