Fabric applique art owl wall hanging

Definately got the fabric bug at the moment!  The reason,  I treated myself to a new sewing machine, as my 30 plus year old Frister and Rossman eventually gave up the ghost, so I bit the bullet and  bought a Janome. So smooth!

The first thing I made was this 7x7 inch picture.




I think he is just so cute, don't you.  I am trying to keep my whimiscal art style but transferring it to fabric. I should have taken a photo of the back as it has the full pattern that is around the frame.

I am so lucky to have a really fabulous sewing shop in the town that sells gorgeous fabrics as well (The Little Sewing Company).

  2. Lovely Linda, this is gorgeous. I love, love, love it. I remember when I brought a new sewing machine after the one I was using ( which used to belong to my Mum) died. I wished someone had told me sooner about the different things you could do with a new machine, plus it didn't weight 40 tonnes like the old one.
    Happy sewing. I hope you make more of these.
    Hugs, Kyles xo
