This is my 4th for the Delangly family based on a family tie to history - the Polish flag. I have to finish it since I want to get back to my Karla G hookings that are so much fun! Yes I received the patterns and adapted them to 2 versions on linen.
Wendy requested a version of the bird found on the Polish flag... I googled and found a few variations and even a colouring book outline I could use to start with. The pillow like the others I completed for Wendy will be 18"x18" and will have piping around the pillow with a black or very dark grey backing - using 3 buttons across to make it removable.
I was asked to use a red background that was not orange based... well low and behold I did not have any in my stash, shocking I know! So I had to dye some, I wanted a cranberry red and do you think I could find a formula that already existed using my Pro-Chem. I did luck out with a red from the Multi-Fusion Ingrid Hieronimus - Ragg Tyme had in her book and voila, with some a bit darker when hooked in, it came out quite nicely I think!
As I have hooked the wings, I have added in the detail lines so you can see on the right side the wing has the grey lines filled in and on the left still to be done. Just like colouring at school!
