On Connie's Play Desk — Let's Go Crafting

I thought it would be fun to share a little bit of what I have been working on this past week. Besides teaching camp - which is so much fun and so very rewarding I

Prepared more patterns for fall classes which are starting the week of August 20th,

Started a new embroidery project,

Worked on some hand piecing for a Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt that I am making, andDid some ripping. I had wanted to do some embroidery around the seams of this quilt, but I had wanted to save time and tried using my embroidery machine. While it looks ok, it was not the look I was going for so now I need to rip, rip, rip! That little bit you see that is ripped?? That took a little over an hour to do. UGH!! Lots more ripping to go, but I think after the ripping is done and I decide on a pattern to do by hand, I will be much happier with the end result. OK, back to my studio!
