POTM-Lynda Hall's Class

Yesterday my friend Barbie Jo of Cleo and Me and I had the privilege of participating in Lynda Hall's crazy wool pincushion class. I haven't made any crazy wool projects before, so this was another new technique for me.

Lynda with Pincushion Samples

Lynda explained the techniques and demonstrated some of the decorative stitches and away we went. Some of her samples were made by her granddaughters. Wouldn't that be a fun project with your grandkids!

We were encouraged to be creative and draw our own designs and Lynda also had several pattern sheets with additional ideas.

We received a kit with a variety of wool which we used to piece our background and baste in place. After the background is in place, you can either do the decorative stitching or stitch your applique.

Applique First for Me!
