Here is the latest photo of my Eiffel Tower in progress. I really do love working on this. I am planning a few moderations to the original pattern…not because hers is not lovely…but I have a couple of motifs I’d like to add to mine and need the space to add them. I saved a couple of empty areas which will hold the motifs that I am working on right now. It is fun to make it really my own this way.

Also in progress is another stitching I have been working on for some time. It is a gift for a special friend and I can’t show the whole thing until she has received it. Here is a sneak peak. It needs to be in the mail VERY SOON!!!

And a note for my friend Pat…if you are out there reading my blog while you are frolicking around London and Paris for two months, please remember your dear friends here at home and send us an email note with all your adventures! I do not have an email address for you!!

Amities, Averyclaire

Both your pieces are lovely! Your friend is very lucky to be receiving that lovely piece you’re working on! And I love the Eiffel Tower piece too! Lucky friend to be roaming London and Paris for 2 whole months! Wow!

Averyclaire,

The Eiffel Tower is lovely …… I am especially intrigued with the motif on the lower right with the multiple borders/frames. I am thinking of quilt designs, of course, and think I worked out how to use the idea. (I have only had one coffee this morning, but it has kicked the brain into gear!)

Thank you for showing us, and thank you to the designer for the inspiration.

Both pieces are just lovely. I’m looking forward to seeing both finished! I wish I was with your friend having a grand time in Paris and London…two whole months sounds like a dream!

Both pieces are just gorgeous. Stupendous in fact. I love the Eifel Tower one and the secret one too.
Lots of Love

Beautiful stitching on both pieces! Good for you for personalizing your Eiffel Tower piece. I love doing that–makes it all the more special, I think.

Have a great weekend!
