NEEDLEWORK.....

I finally got the Dot Quilt tied.  Now to finish it off.  What's in the hoop now?  The Christmas Quilt is in the hoop awaiting tying. 
I've also been working on my Red Work baskets.  I just finished block 4.
I've started on block 5.  It has lots of French Knots, so this one is going to take a little time.
I've been thinking about starting a Band Sampler.  Don't know what this is?  Head over to Sharon's place, Pintangle, she has an article about Band Sampler history.  She has a Band Sampler that she's been working on.  You can see her Band Sampler here.  Sharon's Band Sampler is 96 feet 5 inches long, she's been working on it since 2009.  She shows some pictures of the Sampler.
Have you done a Band Sampler? 

I'm linking up with Heather over at Books and Quilts for Needlework Tuesday.

  3. Your dot quilt is lovely. it's so unique and appealing. it keeps me looking at it, my eyes moving all around it.

    I enjoy redwork embroidery, though haven't done any in ages. It looks so fresh to me.
