Shisha Brights is the name of Jill’s newest wallhanging – all of 9 1/2" X 10". But not just any wallhanging! Grandmothers love it, twenty-somethings love it, we all love it! And why? Because it combines machine stitching and assembly (in the morning), with hand-stitching and Shisha mirrors (in the afternoon). Appliqued animals, bright colors and obviously fun hand stitches allow for whimsy, imagination and relaxation … all at the same time. A wonderful day, with the bonus of a really great finished hanging. Bring your own fabric, see supply list for details.
