I finally jumped in over the holidays between being overwhelmed with other stuff. Our family is in the midst of a COVID outbreak, so my husband and I spent Christmas with our dogs. It turned out to be a relaxing day (all day in my jammies!), but we missed being with our family. It was a good time to start stitching as I had already prepped my fabric made of mostly silk samples I was gifted with a couple of years ago. I'm having fun making it up as I go! The color is a little off in the photos - more fall-like in person and I have much more stitching to do, but I feel pretty good about the start. Looking forward to learning more and more stitches. And you were right, Alex, I did NOT like it in the beginning, but it's growing on me!

Alex, I took a break from Make It Your Own Embroidery to give my granddaughter, Kayleigh, 5, her first sewing lesson! I was inspired by your video from August 5, 2017, when you had Lennox, 2, on your lap sewing with her. I pictured doing this with my toddler granddaughter, but due to the pandemic, I had not seen my Sweet Kayleigh in person in 2 years--until Christmas Eve. We had so much fun sewing together! Sewing is a great bonding activity! On Jan. 1st, Kayleigh leaves Maryland to return to Minnesota with new the doll blanket that she made with her grammie and lots of new sewing-related vocabulary! I'm so glad that I have my embroidery project to distract me after she leaves. And thanks to you, I am also signed up for Joanne Sharpe's 2022 Artfully Inspired Life "Crushing It." Alex, with much gratitude, thank you for all that you do to support the arts and to help us get through the long years of the pandemic. Happy New Year and Wishing You, Your Family, and all at the Quilt Show, the Best in 2022!!! Karla from Burtonsville, Maryland -

like a sunflower edge? Is your plan to do all circles? You mention an Easter theme. Happy New Year tomorrow. HelenW

Stopping was hard, but I think I’m done! I’ve ironed it to a piece of batting and done some quilting, but it doesn’t really show. Once I’ve ordered more silk, it will grow up to be a pillow. I’m really enjoying seeing all the different interpretations. This version is random, but some of you have introduced more control into your design. All are so beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
