Lynette Anderson class.

So here are some photo's of the Lynette Anderson workshop I did on Wednesday at Grandmothers Garden in Gordonton.

Some of Lynette's samples she bought with her. see the cushion in the second photo? That goes with the quilt I did for Lynette, remember?

Yes I planned this photo sideways....NOT!!
I also made this cushion too


The class I was part of, was making "Shepherds Cottage Bag".

Lynette showing us her method of needleturn. That is my piece she is demonstrating on........

Sorry Lynette!!! Why the heck does this happen??

 Poor thing has most likely got an ear ache by now from being tipped sideways!!

So that was as far as I got on the day, still a bit of stitching to go, then construction time. I thought my sheep looked like wolf in sheep's clothing!! Because my hill was a fairly dark fabric, Lynette suggested instead of the stitched flowers as shown in the pattern, I might like to do little fabric flowers. Lynette showed me how to cut tiny circle from my chosen fabric, then do several colonial knots to hold in place. Maybe if you click on the photo it will give you more detail.



Of course I haven't finished, I did finish all my hexagons. I promise I will show you when I have finished. I am using the same fabrics as the "Badger Cottage Pencil Case".

Fun class, Lynette is very friendly, helpful & funny! I meet some nice ladies all sharing the same joy of stitching. The team at Grandmothers Garden were helpful & friendly. I nearly had to padlock my handbag closed!
