Slow Sunday Embroidery

In September 2013, I went to an applique workshop with Becky Goldsmith and made this little wonky house block. Here is my blogpost about the workshop.  Actually, I have participated in four wonderful workshops this past year and now have a pile of UFO's waiting to be completed. I have decided to tackle them one at a time over the next few months.  Christine and I got together to sew this past week and I added the orange border and the triangle border to my block. The goal is to eventually make this into a little wall hanging.

I looked at my block and it told me it wanted some embroidery and button embellishments. I went down to my fabric, button and thread hoard  collection and found some cute buttons in the perfect colours for my block.


This afternoon, I am doing some embroidery, freehand--no lines on the fabric.  We will see where this goes...  Some of those buttons may end up being flowers in the garden at my wonky house.
