The stitch group got together last Friday, which was a national holiday in Japan - Labor Day. We are continuing to work on our butterfly handkerchief bags. Everyone likes the tulips at the ends of the bag pulls,
so we had some practice by making some little fobs. After making the twisted cording from #8 perle, we turned pieces of four inch square fabric into little tulips.
While we enjoyed treats and tea, we chose a date for our next get together and discussed our next project. We also talked more about going to the Tokyo International Quilt Festival in January.
Well yes I do! But this is the next best thing. Everyone is doing great work and having fun, the tulip fobs are so cute and useful. And the quilt show coming up sounds exciting. I'm looking forward to reading about it and seeing quilt photos!
Lovely happy faces.
