100 Details In 100 Days - Day 100

Well, we've reached the end of Sharon's 100 Details In 100 Days Project. What an amazing series this has been. I'm still blown away by how Sharon's idea for bringing some new life to her blog awakened so many of us and inspired us to add more interest to our blogs.

I've had a wonderful time thinking of designs and patterns to share with you for your crazyquilt projects.

So, for the Grand Finale, I've decided to offer you 3 Fractal designs, bringing those patterns to an even 20. You can find the entire set on my Flickr site. Just click on one of the photos:







Last but certainly not least, I've worked up a new peacock design for you:



Stitch this on fabric and then sew into your crazyquilt foundation. You can do outline/stem stitch embroidery or you can bead this. Try crayon tinting or filling the body in with sequins. Lot's of options again!

Sharon's next project will start on January 2nd, 2007. Hop over to Sharon's In A Minute Ago blog to read about it. Sharon has titled the project, "Take A Stitch". Being that I'm a designer, I will be contributing to this project again by offering you patterns of one type or another. It doesn't exactly go with Sharon's theme, but this is what I would like to do.

So everyone, I hope you've enjoyed these patterns as much as I've enjoyed creating them.

Happy Stitching!

Pink Purse - More Beading

I had a few free hours yesterday to stitch on this project and as you can see, I did some more beading. The plan for later today is to embellish the vine. I also need to add my signature cat. I think I'll stitch him in the bottom right patch.

Motif Christmas Bell

I guess Christmas is on my mind again! Today's detail is a pattern for Christmas Bell. I would stitch the bell in blue or silver, the holly leaves in green and the berries in red. Of course, you can also do the entire design in Redwork or the colors of your choice.

This project sure went fast, didn't it? I can't believe tomorrow is the last day. I'll see what I can do about coming up with something special for tomorrow's detail.

In the meantime, hop over to Sharon B's In A Minute Ago blog and read about the plan for her to come to the US to teach. Oh, would it be cool to take an "in person" class with Sharon!

I've been so busy doing the finishing on some things, that I haven't had alot of time for this project. But my finishing is done for the moment, so I should be able to focus on this project now.

I did manage a little time to start beading this and hopefully, will be able to work on it again later today.

Motif Teapot

Today's detail is for a teapot pattern. This will go with yesterday's teacup.

Again, you'll probably want to size this down a bit for a crazyquilt motif or stitch it as is and work it into your foundation as a focal point.
