Sunday Stitch Group
I love my stitch group, and always look forward to our get togethers. We met on Sunday and everyone was working hard on the gingham drawn thread chicken scratch projects, but we still talked and had a good time.
We also talked about our next project, which will be our own versions of the Japanese wall hanging I learned at the afternoon class in Kanagawa organized by Alice Gordenker.
One of our members brought some wall hangings she made twenty years ago for show and tell. They are all fantastic and gave us some additional ideas. The first five were all painted by the stitcher.
Applique, showing front and back.
I want to try to make a kimono like this one.
The left side is the hanging, the right shows the original color.
Wouldn't you like to be a part of this creative group? All of that and tea time, too!
We are planning something else very soon. Stay tuned....

Pamela: I have never done chicken scratch but will try it someday.
The wall hangings are beautiful.
I am looking forward to seeing your progress on the Japanese Wall hanging, thank-you for sharing the photos with us.

Oh, yes! It would be lovely to be a member in such great group. However, one reason it is good is that it is small. The more members you get the more opinions and adjustments need to be handled. The size it is at the moment is the best I think.
Have fun, I can see that your students are really enjoying these meetings.
It would be fantastic to be a member of this group, you are all so clever. Love the wall hangings, they are all beautiful.
It's a great sight to see your group hard at work on a gingham project.
also, new projects using kimono would be great.
I just love your stitch group. And doing show and tell is a really fun way to see things created before you began working together!
YOur chicken scratch projects look amazing and I have no doubt your wall hangings will, too!
I've been away for a holiday, so am just catching up now with many posts. It is always great to see the beautiful work your stitching group do, and the yummy-looking snacks you enjoy!
