On Monday, at group, we did our April block for our mystery sampler. Here is my block. My colours are quite subdued to everyone else but I am quite happy with how they are coming together. I bought these fabrics by Blackbird designs when I first started quilting a number of years ago, so it is nice to be able to use some fabric from my stash.
Yesterday was my friend Nancy's birthday. I gave her the little stitchery I showed you on my last post. I added a hanger but couldn't get one small enough so enlarged the stitchery by adding some cotton lace around the outside so above is the new improved version. I think the lace sets it off nicely.
Well that's about it for today Happy Stitching everyone...............
It does look good with the lace border - that was a good way to help it fit the hanger.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to add the lace to the stitchery! Your block is very pretty in those soft colors! :0)
