Welcoming Showers

by GrannieJo

GrannieJo tells us, “This is what I did with Ryan’s  Water Cans from 2007.  I actually made several of these and gave away all but one.  The colors are so vivid and great for my gardening friends.  Makes a nice greeting on your door. It is a great way to make up block embroideries.”

    Looks great. Did you use felt to make these?

    These are a great idea for gardening friends.
    Even folks who don’t do the outside work but like the colorful embroideries. I’d like to use them for a banner to hang by my front door.

    Thanks for the comments. I stitched out the design on a plain fabric since most of it is covered with stitches. I folded the excess fabric to the back and then sandwiched the ribbon between the design and a pice of felt backing.
