Monday at Maren's




Anne's wonderful punch needle piece. 
We were given a lesson and I can't wait to get to work on my first piece.




Maren's latest quilt. She created many of the fabrics herself and shared them in a workshop with her quilting group.


Our group of rug hookers who are also quilters, punch needlers, metal artists, painters and pastel artists!


Had to include a shot of Henry sleeping with his pet bird.

Mary, this punch needle bird is so lovely! I have a punch needle somewhere in a drawer for a long time, such a thing with four needles, but never tried it. I have to check out how to do it and give it a go, it looks so promising!
Have a nice weekend!

The punch needle bird is adorable. Isn't it fun to get together with creative women. I always leave so energized!

Hi Mary,
Your Henry is one beautiful animal, and that's just about the sweetest thing, him sleeping with his birdie!
