My gorgeous sewing friend Gemma lives in the French colony of New Caledonia. Nearly a year ago I had the opportunity to meet up with her and her family when our family took a cruise that stopped in Noumea.
Now Gemma is Australian, but she speaks about four languages on account of being posted overseas with her husband a few times. She can find the best French patisserie on the island and is very clever with free motion quilting.
She has just started up a weekly linky party where you can feel brave enough to share your own FMQ ing. It's called I Quilt.
So here is my effort for today. This is the little ATC pouch I made for Gemma recently. On the back I FMQed the French phrase, 'A friend like you is worth having."
And that's Gemma sitting there doing some hand quilting, hehehe!
Linking up to I Quilt and TGIFF!
