Celticlady asked if any of us had done the freebie offered by the hunt at OPW this week. This is what I did, and I think that it turned out nice. I have never done cut work previously, and don't know how it would be on a big project, but can see many possibilities. Here is the site. http://www.oregonpatchworks.com/

I really like how this turned out. I will just have to wait patiently for a larger hoop for me to try it out. *4U ><>

Could you tell me how this works? I get the newletter from OPW and even found the bookmark but it says $10. Is there another place that it is to be found for free? Any suggestions, greatly appreciated. By the way, the bookmark looks beauitful!

You have to look in the designs, and they have it in another area - it takes a while to go through these, but do not remember exactly where it was. I saw where someone put the site out in community -hope you get back to it.
Honeebee - this was the first time I have seen this site and it took me a while to figure it out. For this design I eventually clicked on the picture and it brought up the download box. I could not see anywhere it said free and thought for a long time that I had not found the right place either.

Great work dlonna, I hope that you used your fray block - when you did your cutting, as well? I love the look of cutwork - but sometimes it becomes more work that I enjoy - but this bookmark - looks like it is designed rather well for cutwork and I believe that I will attempt this one, too. *4U

I adore roses!
Now, how would we guess that? I did not use fray check, but with the linen and WSS it does not appear that it will be needed. How about a doily using this technique - nice, huh?
Oh - I like your thinking!

Thank you - and those of you that have not done cut work - make sure you download the instructions, for I did not think of that until after the fact. Much easier if you know what to do.
Thanks lorri, I was taking ages looking, but was not going to give up. It is really beautiful
