Work in Progress and Our Family

My design wall is full! I have a lot of projects that need finishing! And then too I have a few that are ready to go on exhibit and I just got back some of my work from another exhibit and decided to pin them up also for the time being.

A few years back I was influences by my sister Polly the Patchworker at a quilt show to purchase some embroidery blocks from Africa. In so doing we would be helping out disadvantaged rural African women. You can read about the Tambani project here. I pulled out my blocks and sashed them and sewed them together to be hand quilted later. I am needing some hand work for a road trip we plan to take West this summer.

Some photographer gets credit for getting every single one of you to have a wonderful expression. And you all are all positioned just right. Perfect picture!

Your design wall is very inspiring. The litle trees in the bottom right are intriguing.

Great family photo.
