TAST2012 Week 24

As you might remember last week was a TAST free week. Sharon at Pintangle suggested making something out of the old stitches and some participants made lovely pieces. I used the week to work on my bias tape quilt instead.

We are back to normal routines and for Week 24 we were given Buttonhole Wheel. This is a fun stitch and does not have to be made into a perfect wheel. Half a circle, quarter or even just a thin triangle would be OK. I immediately thought of a picture frame and designed some arty flowers for the picture.
