My camera would not cooperate so I only have one photo to show you today. I am going to have to retake pictures later on of my stitcheries that I have completed.
I am sharing a picture of the "Sewing Seeds" project that I am working on. The pattern is by Cheri Saffiote-Payne. It is ready for the raw edge machine stitching. The stems were to be pieced. I decided that, since the flowers were to be fused, I might as well do the same with the stems. One flower center is pinned in place as the fusing did not take. I have not been completely satisfied with the last batch of Heat 'n Bond Lite that I purchased. The paper is different than in the past and sometimes the fusing does not go well.
I have two more small Cheri pattern projects in the works, too. They aren't ready for a preliminary photo just yet.
Tomorrow is the Sew 'n Sews gathering day. We are going to work on stitchery projects for something different to do. Should be fun. Hopefully there will be some Show 'n Tell for me to take pictures of. That is, if my camera and I get along better.
Stop back again!

What a fun prim quilt!! Have fun tomorrow!!
What a lovely quilt!
Your quilt is wonderful. I really like it. Hope that you have fun tomorrow. It seems like Stitcheries are a big thing right now - I've been seeing them all over the blogs.
Karen this is SO cute!! I'll have to check out her patterns, I love this one. I'm sorry your camera is being persnickety. Interesting about Heat 'N Bond - I'd love to try Misty Fuse myself.
Looking good so far!
That is looking great! Don't forget your camera, I look forward to seeing all the lovely projects.
Wow Karen, your flowers look great! I love it, thanks for sharing, Elaine
what a fun pattern!
have fun at the sew n sew, I always love your show and tell
A very cute pattern. I agree since the rest of the project was fused the stems should be too :0)

A day with your friends - fun!!!
I love this one, Karen - it's fabulous. You've been busy, busy, busy!
It is just a wonderful quilt...I love how it is turning out.

What a lovely bunch of flowers!! Great primitive quilt and love the colours that you use! have a nice weekend, hugs, Daniëlle
That is a very sweet and truly primitive looking quilt.
In the past I have had problems with some of my Heat and Bond. Rather frustrating:/
Enjoy your weekend!
I find this quilt to be very charming in all it's prim glory - makes me smile. :-D Hope Sew 'n Sews was good fun and you've had a chance to check your camera settings...I hit the wrong button and send my camera into a tizzy some times.
What a darling little quilt, Karen. Love the whimsy of it. Looking forward to seeing your other two projects when they get to the "show" stage.
How adorable. I love this style. I have a couple of Cheri Saffiote-Payne's books and I get them out occasionally and daydream.
If you haven't tried it I really like Shades Fusible. It's very, very light weight and unless you irong it really good doesn't hold forever but it's so light you can't even feel it when you stitch...even if it's by hand. blessings, marlene
I love Cheri's pattern and this is no exception! Your fabric choices are great. Is this a wall hanging or table runner?? Can't wait to see it finished.
You must be having fun with this one Karen! 8-)
I LOVE Cherri Safiote patterns and your little quilt is gorgeous. I love the colours you have used.
Hi Karen! Love your runner...the fun is coming up now; the hand stitching! Enjoy!
Cheri's patterns are so fun and happy! I love your runner!!
I love this. Another blogger has mentioned these patterns too, and every time I see them I really like them. This one is no exception. Beautiful!
Love it Karen... ...:o) Nice to see it done in some other colours... gorgeous!!! :o)
It is so pretty. I love the look of all the different flowers together.
