friend Randy (Barrister’sBlock) does wonderful things with wool. While looking at some of her recent creations, I admitted to her that I adore my wool but I rarely use it. She challenged me to a duel – or should I say “dual”. We have chosen a pattern and the only rule is that it has to be done by the end of the year. (Stay tuned!)
So… in the meantime, I
figured I’d better practice my wool work skills. I chose 9 of the leaf blocks
in the Mary Witherwax (Collector with a Needle pattern) quilt (yet another
project that I have been wanting to start) and started “practicing”.
I love the way it turned out
and have appropriately named it “Wooly Witherwax”. I hope Mary would approve.
I know a few of my cohorts have finished their Humble Quilts "Sajou" project so grab a cup of tea and hop on over to Lori's blog post (here) and see all the wonderful renditions. It never ceases to amaze me how different they can be. What fun!

Oh this came out so beautifully; Nice stitching on those wooley leaves...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteI recognized those leaf shapes right away as having come from the Witherwax pattern. I wonder if I have that bird print. If not, I must have something similar. Anyhow, I like it very well as your border. You still remember how to work with wool!
ReplyDeleteWooly Waxworth is a lovely fall addition. You've still got the touch.
ReplyDeleteVery clever of you, Wendy. A great little finish. I am hoping to get my Oct. mini quilted tomorrow and bound Wednesday. May even get it posted before midnight on Halloween. :)
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing what you and Randy are up to.
Ooh, I love Wooly Witherwax! What a great way to practice your skills in anticipation of another 'great' quilt! Can't wait to see your next one!
