years ago, judy worked with my brother nelson,
and then became friends with my mumsie.
now, thanks to judy's blog, and recent meet ups,
we have become friends.
i am so grateful for her friendship.
this spring, we took jane's online class together,
and we decided to be "lab partners",
sharing feedback with one another, and comparing notes.
judy's perspective really helped me grow and stretch.
linen, cotton fabric, embroidery floss, vintage buttons,
frayed selvedges, cotton thread
when she stitched me a beautiful portrait of henry for my birthday,
i started thinking of what i could do for her.
her recent sewing room rehab inspired the color palate,
and i had these vintage buttons, just waiting for a project...
so i made her this wee wall hanging.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JUDY!
Giant hugs, Karen!!!
ReplyDeleteThe wall hanging is in my kitchen for now, where I can enjoy it first thing each morning, but will soon find its way to my sewing room, where it indeed fits in perfectly!
I love it.
Thank you so much!!!
