CQJP 2018 January Block Seam 1
The first seam was embellished with black size 8 perle cotton and a Chevron Stitch.
This seam will be built up with more embellishment later.
To keep my stitches even, I placed one of Sharon B.'s Crazy Quilting Templates (from Set 1) along the seamline and used a pencil to lightly mark the upper-most and lowest points.

Using the same perle cotton, the second seam was embellished with a feather stitch. More embellishement will be added to this seam after I cover the applique edges of the heart with stitching.
Thank you for visiting!

I recieved my CQ Stencils from Sharon B. in return for an honest review. I really enjoy using these stencils and look forward to creating more with them this year!

Another fan of Sharon's stencils here - don't know what I would do without them!
Beautiful stitching Renee! I love the fabric colours you have chosen too! Happy New Year to you! Christine xx
I see Sharon's templates have come out to play! Looking forward to following your 'crazy' adventures.
Very pretty beginning! Your stitching on the feather is very well-spaced, too.
I love your heart block, beautiful stitching!
Thank you so much, Kathy!
