DaGMT - Day 18

I am falling behind in my posting.

I finished the first fingerless glove.

Still need to weave in the ends, mind you. I took some time out after looking at the picture to redo my nails, since the chips were really showing. (Does that count as needlework?)

I spent some time quilting a vest panel I am making up for a friend. Then I spent even more time picking out the quilting on the vest panel. Note to self: always put the walking foot on, before putting anything with batting in it under the machine.
I have requilted it, but no pictures until I get it finished, since there isn't much to show yet.

Meanwhile, I came across an ancient ufo today, and was inspired to finish it. This is my progress so far.






I like what I have done so far, but you will have to wait to see what it becomes. Of course, you are welcome to guess.

  2. Purple! Who'd have guessed you'd be working on purple? Pretty fabrics. Those fingerless gloves are perfect for showing off polished nails. As for a guess? It's going to be some sort of pinwheel, but for what, I don't know...... a mat for a cat, maybe?

  3. Second guess!! Maple syrup gathering?? I still do love those colours. Cheers from Jean

  4. I wasn't sure about the colours for the fingerless mitts when you showed just a bit of the ribbing, but now seeing the whole thing, it's very prettty.

    I'm thinking the ufo is some sort of bag. Great fabrics.
