Wow blue sparkly and a star. Hmmm sneak peek for Bonni. Have to wait until I get home from dog training, a quick visit to the favorite LQS and then a visit to the plant nursery. Should take a pic now but my phone and I don't sync.

Hello all, have made a huge start on August swap. Am still unable to handsew, so I'm going to give machine applique my best shot. Here's what I've got so far, and yes, it is meant to be a dragon. Just what I'll d with it remains to be seen. And then only if I don't mess it up. The machine that does the zigzag stitch is almost as old as me.

Hmmm I think he needs a tail.

started the stitching,hopefully it wil improve.otherwise it's back to the drawing board.

Ok. For your good work, you get another sneak peek.

This time it's not a picture but a word sneak peek. Ok...ready for it? here it is.......

Somewhere on the wall hanging will be the letter A. (giggles).

If you ever find yourself getting out towards DeKalb (or Elburn) let me know. DeKalb is around 60 miles sw of Chicago but I can't drive into chicago. It would be good to meet somebody from the boards. :)

I will have to check it out and see how close we will be. Your right it would be a joy to meet somebody from the boards.

Oh she'll love (and so do we) hints! I wonder if Lindyline has figured out her second hint yet. (giggles)
