Hi everyone!

Welcome back to the Stitch Along Sunday Party for Week 2. Last week the challenge was to add to our art quilt one of two words – “cold” or “hot” using an embellishment.

Here’s an example of what Ruth created:

Ruth's Week 3 Stitch Along Sunday Piece with embellishments

Beads as embellishments

Chris van der Jagt provided this update on her wonderful landscape scene:

Embellished with a button

Chris had this to say about her piece:

I had one button that looked like a boat but it had an ark on top.  I took my clippers to it and it sheared the ark part off perfectly and that  piece flew across the room. A black marker and done; that was so fun…
So, what’s happening now? Well, share with us how your piece is coming along. This week, week 4 of this Stitch Along Sunday, Ruth has challenge us to finish our piece using a technique outside our normal repertoire.
Ruth lists a number of examples over on her blog to get your creative juices flowing.
Now, link up your finished challenge, or whatever stage your challenge is at.
Oh, and we’ll be starting a fresh new challenge starting next Sunday, so if you’re just tuning in now, don’t fret, stop back next Sunday and start along with all of us!
Go here for more information about how this party works.

Some simple rules for this party:

  • Your project should be based on Stitch Along Sunday. Or, if you have another art quilt you’d like to share, for sure, join in. This is party is really all about art quilts, after all.
  • Mention us in your post, either with a link or button.  If you have a linky party page or buttons on your sidebar that works great, please just at least mention something in your post, for example “I’m linking to Quilts by Jen’s Stitch Along Sunday party, see my party page/sidebar for their button” (button to come shortly – sorry, just haven’t been able to get that sorted out yet!)
  • If you follow us, we follow back!!  PLEASE make sure to comment and tell us you’re following, and we’ll hop on over and follow too! 🙂
  • The most important rule, TAKE TIME TO COMMENT.  The best linky parties are where everyone gets a lot of comments.  Try commenting on the post just before yours.  If you take the time to check out their project, take one more second to leave a comment.
