I did this cathedral window a while ago, but thought I'd use it for some visual interest. . . definitely more interesting than the in-progress shots of my works-in-progress (WIPs), which are mostly piles of fabric at this point! Karen's Grandma Opal was had an amazing gift with cathedral windows and apparently would just sit and whip them out with invisible little stitches. Mine are not so invisible, but I'm working on it! I'm not yet sure how I want to use the windows, but I'm thinking of some funky, modern way. I have some Lilly Pulitzer fabric, so I thought maybe I'd use that?? I'd welcome suggestions!
Okay, back to Santa's salt mines! This wicked cold of mine is not helping! It came out of the blue and is one of those nasty 10-year colds that just feels miserable. Okay, pity party over, sewing recommences!
Oh, and before I forget, while I'm sure I've "won" none of the neat little giveaways from the Sew, Mama, Sew Giveaway Day, I so enjoyed reading everyone's amazing blogs! I especially loved reading everyone's stories! Thanks so much to everyone who participated! I'm so impressed by everyone's generosity and talent! I'm committing myself to participate next year!
Love it - and the name Opal :)
