Fortunately I had a few Kaffe Fassett half yards in my stash! And I think this "Enchanted" is just perfect because it brings out the blues and the oranges.
This tapestry design is by Kim McLean Designs and is available exclusively through The Crewel Gobelin shop in Sydney, Australia.
I stitch my tapestry without a frame because it makes it more portable, and it would need stretching even I did use a frame. The nature of tent stitch means that the canvas is all pulled in one direction.
I don't know if this cushion will end up sitting next to my Peacock at Sunset cushion of not, but it might work.
In more good news I've finished my Kaffe Fassett scarf.
This scarf is very long (2.3 metres), but it's all worth it now that it's finished. We're experiencing the cold, damp days of winter now, so I will get lots of wear from it.
Last weekend I gave a little talk to a local quilting guild - Coastal Quilters. They wanted to hear about how I got in to quilting, so I took along some of my earlier quilts. Here the are hanging on the racks after my talk had finished. Everyone came up onto the stage for a good look during the tea break.
Each one of these quilts has a story behind it and it was interesting to revisit each one and give it some individual attention.
Now it's time for the Peacock Party. What's everyone else been up to this week? Feel free to link up a recent blog post and let us know what you've been doing.
