FUSION...

GOOD MORNING BLOGG BUDDIES...after watching a Not Forgotten Farm Video, I decided to give this a try.  Using a piece of old ticking and a cherry pattern of mine, I followed Lori's directions and fused these 2 pieces together with wonder bond (not wonder bra).  It's in the QUE... after Pumpkin Cart on the frame &  my 2019 Santa Father Christmas on my drawing board.  I tried this several years ago, and was not happy with the loops however I didn't have the right thread or needle size.. I'm going to use #6 Bernadine needle, Weeks Dye Works #5 pearl cotton!  Stay tuned!  Here's a peak at PUMPKIN CART.  It's my favorite... Keep on punchin.
