How easy it is to become sidetracked.
I fell in awe of this great new pattern by Lynette Anderson - her Scandinavian Christmas. I was busting to get started so after the pattern arrived, have now accumulated the material to get started.
I will be an interesting project as has a combination of applique, stitchery and cross stitch and a little wool felt also used - anyway it is something a little different and Im looking forward to getting it together.
After tracing/cutting, compiling the pieces ready for applique, I have managed to get the first piece sewn in place. The use of the light box comes in very handy for this.Also - there is a new "basting" glue out called "baste it", and I can say - it is excellent. You only need a few tiny drops around the circumference of the piece you are going to applique and after about 3-5 mins it is dry enough stitch in place. Can recommend this one. Watersoluable too!!
Happy Sewing

This looks like a darling quilt! The glue sounds good too.
Wow, you've gotten straight into that project. Where did you get the kit from?
Ooo a new project. How wonderful. Love the fabrics and can't wait to see more of what you make here.
I saw this pattern today and it's fabulous! Lynette is such a great designer. It looks good so far. Ann :-)
I've coveted this pattern for a couple of weeks since its unveiling. I think I'd enjoy it just as much watching your progression. You are off to a great start!!
Gorgeous fabrics and a lovely quilt. I have been drooling over this one but won't make it at this stage - too much else on! I will enjoy watching your progress on this one...
