Hello Ladies!!!

My name is Martine and I live in Belgium. I'm so happy to
be a part of the stich-along. When I saw that many of you
were making Tis the season, I surched for the book and I began
to make it to. When I was ready I sended my pictures to Chooky,
who posted them on the blog. This was my version.




Now I'm ready to begin to make Some Kind of Wonderful.
I'm also sewing for my friends shop. We designed a quilt
together, who is called Les Bobinettes. She has drawn the 
stitcheries and she did the quilting. I told her what kind of
stitcheries I wanted, and I designed the quilt. It's going to
be published in a French patchwork magazine in a few months.




I'm so proud of it!!!
My friend is asked to design 3 projects with stitcheries for a book with
5 other designers. I'm the one who's making the stitcheries and I can
tell you that they are going to be fabulous.
Take care and talk to all of you very soon!!!
Martine
