I made a few
Crossroads blocks in purple for the
Rainbow Scrap Challenge ......I am really get low on purple scraps! Be sure and see what others are working on!
Oh and I worked with some purple batiks earlier this week, if you missed my post - click
here as I also had a giveaway.
I was the lucky winner of these neat stencils designed by Margaret Applen of
Scrap Wisdom Collage
you should see some of the beautiful work she has done! I used stencils a long time ago and can't wait to play with all of her hearts. Time to dig out the paints!
During the same blog hop I was lucky enough to also win this beautiful wall hanging with stencil work on it from
MarveLes Art Studios - there are even tiny beads sewn on it! She also has many beautiful pieces on her website.
You should check out all of the stencils at
Stencil Girl Products there is a large variety of sizes and types by several different artists.
Enjoy your Saturday, we are going to spend the day with friends and check out a new pizza place in Bettendorf. I hope everyone is safe in the Northeast where the blizzard is!

I love your purple batik applique , this is gorgeous! I have a class in a couple of weeks-my first time trying applique so I hope to be able to make some of these wonderful creations I see you all making.
The stencils look really neat. I can't wait to see what you create with them.
I had such fun making my Crossroads blocks - love seeing yours! I follow MarveLes Art Studios too - lucky you! Her work is so inspiring...
I made some purple Crossroads blocks yesterday too Connie! They are getting addictive :*) I love your heart stencils! I've been itching to try some stencil painting on fabrics too, but I know I could never create pieces as lovely as Lesley does. She's amazing! And so are you! Looking forward to seeing the wonderful things you create with your new stencils :*)

Some lovely purples in your Crossroad blocks Connie :) Your little quilt is so gorgeous. Congratulations on your win. I look forward to seeing how you use those stencils :)
I love your blocks, I like the colors and the project you're doing with baticks is beautiful. One of the projects I have in mind to do is create a fabric using stencils, you've given me the will to try. Thanks for the inspiration!
