“Blue Window” by Kristin

I am Kristin and I create in Dickens  Tx.
Town of under 300. " BLUE WINDOW" was inspired by several old stone covered buildings we have in this area.

The buttons are even vintage gifted to me, from a local sewer that can no longer because of illness.
This measures about 10 x23
This was my first attempt  at thread art and I think I am hooked! ! :)

“A Sheaf of Stitches” by MaryAnn

Here is my entry for the thread challenge. I call it "A Sheaf of Stitches". It's my first try at thread stitching so it's certainly not perfect, but I had fun.  It's 6 1/2 x 13 inches.

Bird of Paradise by Claudia M

Bird of Paradise
I struggled with an idea for this challenge since I did not want to use a "thread" type of block.   I decided I wanted to use my "orts" from embroidery that I have been saving (those short bits of fibers from cross stitch, etc) but needed to figure out a quilt pattern.  After searching through photos, I found one of a Bird of Paradise plant that I saw while in San Diego last year.  I sketched out a simplified version of the photo and created this.  It's about 14 1/2 inches square.  This is my first attempt at using the faux piping binding on a quilt...really like how that worked out.
