Last post for today! I just finished sewing up the Vogart Poodle and Basket Kitten #3. I'll share the Poodle tomorrow maybe but thought I'd post this since I have a few minutes before the dryer shuts off!
It didn't quite fit on the scanner but I think you can see it well enough. The beaded fringe at the bottom are little leaves. I used satin cording for the little handles.
Tomorrow, I plan to do some more finishing! I'm on a roll!

Vogart Poodle
Why or why aren't there more hours in the day to stitch?!! I only had enough stitching time yesterday to complete this little Vogart Poodle design. Once I rince the tracing lines out, I'll be sewing on a little satin bow to the top of his head instead of stitching the bow on.
Since I must embellish, I replaced the french knots with seed beads. I'm off to attempt to do some finishing on my sewing machine, this little design included!

Saturday's Chart Seam Treatments
Here are today's seam treats. Sharon mentioned to me that these could be used on little band samplers too. Geez, why didn't I think of that? My brain is in crazyquilting mode and can't think of much else! Be sure to stop by Sharon's In A Minute Ago Blog to see her embellishment series "100 details in a 100 days".

Vogart Poodle
Besides crazyquilting, I've been wanting to play with my extensive collection of vintage iron-on transfers. So I spent 2 hours yesterday afternoon tracing a few of my small patterns. As I mentioned the other day, I'm really into cool little handbags so I want to make a few and thought it would be a neat use my transfers.
This is a Vogart design.

Strawberry Block Day 4
I only did one seam on this yesterday. I used the "Circle" design that I posted below. At the moment, it greatly competes with the strawberry print, but once I bead it, it will really pop out! It looks really cool in person! I plan to add some large beads to the center of the cirlces and then of course, seed beads to the fans.
