Roses For A Friend...
I have been having ''applique withdrawls'' I seem to have been doing a LOT of piecing of late and I do love doing applique and after doing the mug rugs I was itching to do some more applique...
I had been thinking about a friend and what I could make her so........
I made this
and a closer look
there is some hand stitching in the cream I used a variegated pink and it's not showing to clearly might be something to do with the time I took the photo...
The rose pattern can be found at Fat Cat Patterns 
the fabric use for the rose I dyed myself with procion dyes...
and I am not saying who the friend is as I think she drops in every now and then...
