Quilt Update: Slow but steady

Actually, this is pretty fast progress for me!  

I finished appliqueing the 5 leaves in place.  

And now I'm adding some embroidery embellishments.  

Crafting in the woods

We spent the long weekend on Galiano Island.  

We had a great campsite in Montague Harbour Marine Park.  

And went on some great paddles in our fab folding kayak.  

We even got to test out the sail that came with it.  

And I even managed to squeeze in a little bit of crafting while the Crafting Widower was sorting out his pedals on his bicycle. 

Here's the close-up of the passenger seat:

What a great weekend!

More Quilting

I've started the trim.  

It's mostly green with some flashes of red.  

I will cut it into thinner strips.  
Maybe 3-4" widths...still to be decided.  

Leafing out

Check out my leaves!

I used the old tinfoil technique.  

I love it.  

 

I am going to do a few more and then play around with the colour combos.
