I envy you having a quilting service close by - I might be tempted to used one occasionally if I did.<br />I have a little furry face looking at me too now - hard to resist as you say. tialyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04589595958608901040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7024731970662295086.post-69954905394445685872016-10-17T10:36:55.978+11:002016-10-17T10:36:55.978+11:00Oh yes, fabrics like batik are hard on your hands,...Oh yes, fabrics like batik are hard on your hands, most of my fabrics are well worn, or soft silks, so the stitching is a lot easier. Machine stitching looks great too, and you can fancy it up a bit. Look forward to seeing what you come up with....next month maybe? :)Nanettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14473143331781472223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7024731970662295086.post-40265656479188064262016-10-17T10:29:23.359+11:002016-10-17T10:29:23.359+11:00Thanks Maria, I felt like a jet-setter heading off...Thanks Maria, I felt like a jet-setter heading off to Sydney for the day!

You've given me an idea for a bunch of scraps I'd thrown out as being too much the wrong shape and size for anything, so thank you for the inspiration. I probably won't do boro; the scraps are batiks and stitching though all that fine dense weave will kill my hands, but some machine stitchery will do the trick, I'm sure.Kate Chiconihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04652877007861293620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7024731970662295086.post-75873173626512071042016-10-17T08:23:55.825+11:002016-10-17T08:23:55.825+11:00Love your boro piece!

Layering scraps with stitch is a lovely mindless kind of task, I hope you give it a try one day.

And although it seems highly unlikely that I ever shall, the idea is filed away somewhere in the murky depths!! :-) Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13610356454928018161noreply@blogger.com
