After seeing all those wonderfully, gorgeous crazy patchwork squares thought I would take the plunge and try one. Found some small pieces of fabric in my stash and decided to use a small sample of cross-stitch as my first 5-sided piece. The colours of the other pieces are taken to blend in nicely with this piece. I don't know about the blue though. Still, this is an experimental square so I will see how it shapes up.
Now, I need to do some stitching on the seams - that should be fun. Got alot of my books down from the shelves and given them a dusting!!!!!!!!!
Stitched this small piece last evening. Hardanger Floral. A freebie from Yahoo Group TangleCrafts. Used 28 count Jobelan and Anchor Perle 8 and Caron Watercolour threads. Will mount this in a card mount.
