found this lovely appliqué pattern on an old towel in the animal shelter i volunteer at and found it too pretty not to save. oh the small inspirations during the everyday, if one only looks close enough ✨

will definitely have a go at appliqué myself one day. maybe i'll even replicate this pattern, let's see 😇

i have finished my little shroomies & am taking them out of the hoop! it is quite a moment for me 🥹

especially since i'm a notorious start-100-projects-finish-none-typa person

the little guy on the left marks the first time i ever tried silk shading - and i'm pretty damn happy with the result! 🥰
