That's right, this is not Curt. It's AnnaBelle his cousin. hehe Sorry, I know this isn't a teapot quilt, but AnnaBelle stopped by with her Curt necklace on and what could I say......Confused go herefor the real story.......my card.....
Do you know how hard it is to put 42,000 stitches on a card? Well let me tell you it's hard! BUT, I did it. So bite me Aquilta. hehe
AnnaBelle here was made out of some already sewed together scraps. I made a template using a quilted cow in a frame my Sister sent me a loooooong time ago. This was padded and put on cs. I actually did "hand" stitches. I don't do "hand" stitches well. I am a sewing machine girl through and through. But, due to time and feeling way stressed today, another story, I just quickly put these stitches on.
The necklace is from Curt's collection only AnnaBelle thought it needed a little more piazza. So she added the gingham bow made with the easy bow maker. Was kinda hard with those big hoofs of her's. hehe Her tail is made by/with jute.
Well, not my normal crazy teapot card, because this one is actually going somewhere special. Hope Lindsay likes it.......TFL :0)
Hi Sis! Moooooooo!
