I am typically quilting, not stitching….but my daughter volunteered me to make this…
It’s a little candle mat from Bareroots.
Currently my two teens are participating in the play The Egg and I. It’s about a dad having a mid-life crisis and moves his family to a chicken farm in the country. My son is the father and daughter is the daughter.
The cast always gets the director a present that is signed by each of the cast members. While in an area quilt shop, Kalissa saw this pattern and squealed. I have been working on getting Kalissa interested in quilting so I checked to see what was up. Well it was this pattern….not because she wants to make it….because she wants ME to make it.
I cut it out lastnight and started assembling. Once it’s finished we are matting it in a larger picture frame. We are having the cast sign the mat…with a deadline loaming, it looks like I’ll be stitching for a few nights.
Jo,
I think this is adorable! Worth squealing over! LOL And a nice change from quilting. Enjoy
I read that book years ago. And that is a cute little chick wool rug. I have been working on an easter egg one that Elizabeth of Creative Breathing featured on her blog. Almost done.
