GETTING SOME PROJECTS DONE!

I've been getting some sewing projects completed over the summer as well as taking over my son's room now that's he's been out of the house for a few years...I think it's final and I've turned his old room into an extension of my Happy Place. More of an office/library room with a comfy retro leather chair, shelving and a desk.  Yahoo for my space.

I decided some paper piecing would be good to take with me sitting outside. These are 3/4 inch pieces which make up Grandmother's Garden. I love the Shimmer Line of Northcott fabrics. Just wish they had more reds in the fabric selection. I didn't know what colour to make the binding, so I pieced up bits and made a colourful binding using a selection of fabrics from the flowers. It will be framed with glass in front but the glare makes it hard to photograph without reflections.
