I'm facing a quilt square for a friends and family baby quilt - and since I have embroidered anything since the 4th grade and my machine sewing skills are very poor, I'm slightly intimidated. However, watching you cut into the steak (a great new word for scrabble..) I think I can cut into my fabric too.Trudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04473611580636067115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8331391570829308599.post-48271606569094162442010-11-17T14:41:20.749-06:002010-11-17T14:41:20.749-06:00Hello Carolina

Great photos and excellent explanation. I am about a year new to Fair Isle and have become a bit obsessed by it - but I am yet to steek anything by you make it sound easy peasy.<br />Thank you.<br />LoaniQueen of the Tea Cosieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17329511641055727201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8331391570829308599.post-54214177009710646852010-11-16T15:25:46.113-06:002010-11-16T15:25:46.113-06:00I did a workshop with Alice Starmore a few years a...I did a workshop with Alice Starmore a few years ago and she showed us the magical steek , but I had almost forgotten how it worked. I wondered if I would ever have the courage. With your explanation and pictures it doesn't seem so scary. Kauni is wonderful for projects like this, You used very nice colours! I'm currently making a two colour brioche scarf (from the Brioche stitch book by Nancy Merchant)in Kauni. The weather here in Holland is getting colder, so a warm scarf is very welcome.eveliennoreply@blogger.com
