Doing and Listening

I'm so pleased with how this piece of patchwork has turned out as a wall hanging. The piece itself cost me $2 at the op shop and the bamboo stick it's hung on about 30 cents!



Hope you had a lovely weekend! Enjoy your Monday.

Blogtober Day 3 - Patchwork Pieces

I bought three beautiful pieces of hand-stitched vintage patchwork from Etsy (Vintage Gatherings ~ http://www.etsy.com/shop/VintageGatherings?ref=pr_shop) recently but since then, I haven't been able to decide what to do with them.

Initially, I thought I would frame them, but despite considerable scouring in the op-shops, I couldn't find frames that were a) big enough or b) nice enough.

At the moment, I am thinking of stitching them onto a rather dull polar fleece blanket which is, nonetheless, a lovely shade of blue.

What do you think? All suggestions most welcome.
