My white cloth for class is taking shape. I am managing to make a little progress on my surface embellishment although there is still quite a bit to do. I am making this one for my mum and I asked her for some cloth to include which holds special memories for her...she gave me two very dark patterned handkerchiefs...now there's a challenge, incorporating those into a white on white cloth. Still, I won't be beaten, plans are forming, ideas bursting forth...watch this space.....
also, don't forget the give away...just leave a comment here and your name will go in the hat...no deadline, I am nowhere near organised enough for any of that kind of competence!!

love the layers of prairie points. i already have some of your beautiful buttons so leave my name out of the hat. it's only fair that someone else gets a chance.
Karen, this is fantastic work! I love your white flowers... so beautiful!

The applique flowers are beautiful, but, ah, that little heart...
I decided to do a cloth too and in amongst my stash of cloths from grandparents was a velvet crazy patchwork made up of dark greens and blues and so all my pieces are being sewn onto that. Should be a challenge, so light coloured pieces onto random dark pieces.
Loving your piece and I look forward to seeing how you incorporate those dark pieces into the work.
Your innovation never ceases to amaze me....hearts, no less....and are those darling flowers stuffed? And the embellished prairie points are ingenious.
Each time I'm amazed what you can do in just white. The deadline arrives when you say it arrives, that is the surprise for all of us. (hihi)
So very beautiful. I love the eyelet in the heart. You make white on white so very beautiful.
this looks wonderful Karen ~
Beautiful! And, I just want to let you know I am keeping up as we are on the move again. :) We are on our way back to sea for another ten weeks.
Hugs,

Love the puffy little petals!
Now that's thrown the cat (coloured fabric) amongst the pigeons (dark patterned handkerchiefs). What a challenge, but I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

I love the applique flowers, and the heart. I'll be interested to see what develops with the dark fabrics.
Karen, your work is amazing I wish I had your talent. The piece you are working on for your mother is beautiful.
Oh, Karen, everytime I come here admiring I must go and do some embroidery too!!!
A heart in cutwork - magnifico!!
