I worked on this on our recent road trip to the east coast sew that I would have some handwork to keep me busy in the car. Today I was able to finish it. It is called seasons of the heart by Nancy Halversen for Art to Heart. I did change things in it as I always do, but I am pleased with the finish wall hanging.

I did whisper fusable applique for all but the crows.I did most of the blanket stitching by hand but some of the smaller bits were by machine with heavier thread to match.

very nice. You are more ambitious than me, I use road trips as a time to rest my "tennis elbow"! I've never played tennis in my life!

It looks very impressive. I suffer from motion sickness and can't do anything in a moving car.

me too but dh bought a goofy looking strap that hooks under the back of the car & voila it works great. We went far & I had no problems.He said it removes the static electricity from the car. I hope that you can locate one of these. ~thanks & hugs Loralye~
I've never heard of a strap on the car to help with motion sickness. Any idea where he got it so I can look for it. One of my daughters gets very motion sick.

Lovely Fall wall hanging. Your lucky you can handle sewing and motion together. I take some things with me but got to be in sit parked position to work on.

Beautiful! You are much more ambitious than I am. The best I do is to crochet potholders on long trips to give away.

I can't read in the car, but there is something different about the hand embroidery - it doesn't make me sick. :)

You did a great job on it. I too have to have something to work on while we are on the road. I have 3 different quilts started and just take turn as to which one I am working on. I started these before I got my embroidery machine. I enjoy both kinds of embroidery.
