PAPER PIECING WITH PEGGY

Recently, a friend of The Inbox Jaunt offered to create paper piecing patterns with some of the images found on Silent Sunday.

Peggy has amazed us with the breadth of her skill at creating these projects.

  • We started with Easter Sunrise that employed curved piecing HERE.
  • She created an easier pattern-The Heron HERE.
  • Peggy surprised us with a hexie pieced Hydrangea pattern HERE.
  • She even created a pattern from our  Saturday “Seamstresses in Fine Art” Series HERE

Today, Peggy offers my favorite so far–At the Window.  It is an iPhone shot of my daughter who got married last week.  The photo was taken just before we left for church…

  • Just a follow on to my previous post – My interpretation of Young Woman Sewing won at the local show and now goes down for regional judging in April and if it wins there it will go onto the State finals! Fingers crossed and thank you and Peggy so very much for sharing. I am now going to attempt At the Window – it is stunning!!

    Oh my gosh! What a challenge. What a lovely family you have. Sincerely, Paula K.

    This is a beautiful pattern and so cleverly done, your daughter must have been stunning in real life! Are there templates to go with it or am I just not looking closely enough? Love Peggy’s Hydrangeas too. Both are something to aim for having just completed piecing, but not quilted Young Woman Sewing. Thank you both so much for sharing!

    Sorry, just read over your post again and answered my own question. Bet it was a BEAUTIFUL wedding!

  • Laura

    By any chance, is the bride at the window daughter Claire?

  • Leslie Schmidt

    The picture is beautiful, so ethereal. Peggy’s pattern is so intricate and really captures the sense of the photo. Thanks, Peggy.

  • Susan

    Beautiful photo and pattern. Thanks for sharing.

    I like the blown kiss interpretation! Very funny story! Thanks for sharing!

    • Chris

      It made me sad but I’m such a romantic. I have three boys who just don’t understand a mum who sees romantic things in life that they just don’t. X

  • It’s a great interpretation of a wonderful photo. Thank you for sharing it with us.

  • The photo is stunning. I think, as time goes by, it will be one of your favorites of the day. And will bring a tear. 20 years ago my husband took a beautiful picture of my daughter as she was l getting ready to enter the limo after her wedding. Her sweet husband was helping get the dress in the car, and the photo captured her ( I thought) blowing a fair-well kiss to her Daddy. When they returned to our home, and I respectfully showed her this sweet picture, she said, “Oh, Mom, I was brushing the birdseed off of my mouth!”

  • She does amazing work. This is too hard for me, but I love it. Waiting for more nature ones! I need somehow to get better at paper piecing. Thank you.

  • Phyllis

    So much talent! Beautiful!

  • Beautiful photo. Love that someone was able to turn that into a paper piece pattern.
