I’m teaching in France in April!

I just finished the samples for the show - a thread pouch and a table runner & tied it in with the January 2025 Aurifil Artisan Challenge!

Needle turn appliqué & leopards of course 🐅🐅🐅

I quilted with Aurifil 12wt, a lovely collection by Sarah Maxwell.

Happy Monday everyone.
