The one that got away...

I have been busy completing my big Sizzix project this evening, so I have had to scrape the bottom of my iPhoto barrel to find something you haven't seen!

Here is the Travellin' Pic Stitch block that got away, or rather, was sent packing.


It was going to be great... in my head.

However once I started joining those central points, I hated it; one swimming and a ballet lesson later and it got tossed aside.  Not. Feeling. The. Love. 

So I am now on mark II and feeling happy back in my comfort zone.

Well I have a regular, relatively stress-free Wednesday day off tomorrow, so I am aiming to be ultra productive and have loads to show you... famous last words x

  1. I'm with you. Not feeling the love either. Sometimes we just have to cut our losses.

  3. The Travellin' Pic Stitch caused me similar grief...couldn't find any fabric in my stash that matched any interesting photos! Yep, cut your losses!

  6. I need to start a traveling pic block, first a picture would be good. Was it a bright couple of flowers in a concrete jungle on a blue sky day in your picture? Birthday balloons on a rainy day? I doubt I am even close.

  7. Checkling here at Leanne's comment...perhaps you could finish the block and then applique it on to the yellow picnic blanket - keep all the horrors together ;-)

  9. I do feel love for the colors! Maybe the design isn't the right choice, but you can mix up those little EPP pieces and create something wonderful. Don't throw them out yet!

  12. For me the hardest thing is all the pictures I'm wanting to use have uninspiring palettes. I may have to get super creative. Ie. cheat lol
