Little Steps.
Posted on | November 12, 2014 | 20 Comments
It still seems to be very busy here, but progress on some projects is being made in little steps
I have finished the little stitcheries from a FigNBerry pattern. They will have to wait for a little while to be made into a quilt, but I have enjoyed having a portable project to work on.
The Country Garden thread in this one is named Cobblestone.
I am delighted to be back working on my Jacobean embroidery and making good progress there, too.
Only two sections to go!
And I have also completed the main blocks for the Christmas Quilt from a pattern by Viv Robinson.
Here are the blocks together.
In the completed quilt there will be sashing and borders. It may be ready for Christmas ………. maybe.
I am thoroughly enjoying our warmer days and have spent this morning picking a tub of strawberries. Great way to start the day.
Cheers, Karen
Wow! You have been busy! Love all the embroidery. It would be hard to pick a favourite.
Hi Karen,
Beautiful christmas stitcheries happening your way. They are very cute.Love the Jacobean work, it’s awesome.
Cheers, Anita.
You’ve made me drool…love it all! Xox
I always look forward to photos of your stitching, Karen! They are so good!
Your work is beautiful Karen – lovely to see what you are working on, too. I haven’t seen Cobblestone stitched up before – very nice :-) I’m off to hunt out Viv’s pattern – love it!
Those Frosties are so cute! I always loved Viv’s designs and that one is lovely. Wow your embroidery is stunning.
Your stitching is such a delight Karen! I can hardly believe how intricate and detailed that Jacobean embroidery is! I would love to see that in person one day- absolutely stunning! I love the colours of those first stitcheries too- blue and brown are severely underrated!
Karen, I adore those snowmen blocks! Too cute! And your Christmas quilt blocks are gorgeous, as is your Jacobean work. You are so talented!
Karen your projects are all so wonderful… I love that choice of thread for your stitcheries, your Jacobean is just breathtaking, and what a lovely Christmas quilt those letters will become…

I love seeing all your projects…love your Australia designers. The smell of strawberries…yummy!!
