True Friends...

I just adore redwork! So I have sorced a pattern from the collection of the Australian queen of redwork herself, Bronwyn Hayes. This stitchery is simple and divine...

I found it in her book 'Tea with Friends' which I purchased from a gorgeous little patchwork shop in Temora NSW called 'Patches of Heaven'.

Today's 'Get Happy Now' Tip #4 - Find a creative pursuit, whether it's painting, writing or sewing... and devote yourself to it, wholeheartedly, without letting selfcriticism blunt your enthusiasm.

  2. Hi Nic,

    Hopefully I'll be finished it tonight!! I've decided that I'm going to make it into a bag, I just love bags and you can never have too many! I'll post a picture of the finished redwork (pinkwork as mine will be as I did it in a really deep dusty pink instead of red)before I sew it into a bag, you'll have to tell me what you think.

    Once again thanks heaps for the comment!
