TIF APRIL and MAY

It has been a while since I have posted any work as I had some projects to swap out and also have been travelling for a few weeks. WordPress has altered in my absence too. Oh no!

Since Friday I have managed to catch up with my April TIF block and have also completed the May one. Actually I did the May one first as the colours are those I find easy to work with.

Tilled fields

I used many of the TAST stitches on the April block. On the smaller set of circles I have Rosette chain, Bonnet, Buttonhole, Cross and Fly stitches. On the larger set are Chevron, Up/down buttonhole, Ermine, Wheatear, Chain, double placing of Lazy daisy, Cretan, Long/short Buttonhole, Lazy daisy /pistil st, French knots and Whipped spider wheel.

Very good of you! I didn’t something with it, the colors are not my piece of cake……Maybe later.
And I had so much other things to do……

Both your March and April are lovely. I like your fields. Well done with the brown (not a colour I could to work with, so impressive). Your circles are neat too.

I just love your may challenge. it’s a great idea and the colours are nice. How did you manage to have the same colours for the threads and the fabrics.

Hi Anne, I have several boxes of DMC type theads that have been added to over many years. There is always something to match. The fabric is more of a happen-chance, though LOL, there is plenty of that too.,
The chenille for the fence was given by my DD who remembered it when I showed her my block.
