Back ground cotton material (both colours) has some machine embroidered patterns and, I thought of incorporating them as well to the patterns I have in mind.
The applique designs do not have any templates, I draw them free hand on each block, or on the material and as I sew. They will look different from one another, which is what I have in mind. I am using cotton (mostly) for applique; I have cut up couple scarves that I no longer use among other scarps.
This project will keep me busy during the holiday break ....
Happy holidays my friends !
Here's wishing a white Christmas ........
Thank you for stopping by to have a peek,
till next time,

Hmm, I like your sewing and stitching, Gaja. And all free hand! During holidays I hope there will be silence and time to start working with all the dyed cloth.

Thank you Birgit.
Deletethe first elephant is so very rich looking, all very nice. Not so sure I want a white Christmas, actually we are having a very mild spell here has been warmer than some summer days
