Crab Apple Hill Designs

Today I thought I'd share a couple of photo's of some of these blocks that I've stitched up. I just love Crab Apple Hill Designs, they have such charm to them.
These are "By The Garden Path" and I'm happy to report that I'm half way through stitching them. They are stitched on lemon but for some reason both cameras decided to show them as cream.



There's 8 main blocks then one centre block, I'm still trying to decide on what fabric to use to set them with. I've been looking for dragonflies, butterflies bugs etc, but am open to ideas.

Yesterday I decided that as I have a new bag I needed a wallet to go with it. So I spent the day and half the night unpicking an old wallet that was torn and making a pattern and this is what I came up with. Behind the cards and coin section is a section to hold all the notes...lol....









I just need to work out a better way of attaching the last piece of binding.

Happy Stitching.

Love your blog and especially the poem on the side .. "The Weaver"..one of my all time favorites. I first saw the poem in a Corrie Ten Boom book. Anyways, just wanted to let you know that your name has been added to the others for the stained glass piece. Good Luck!!
