Block three - complete
I finished the last section of block three....
and here is the completed block...
Now, on to block 4
Today the quote is from Jackson Brown..."Today give a stranger on of your smiles. It might be the only sunshine he sees all day"
Hi MA, You're crazy quilt block is stunning. I'm amazed at all of the stitches you have! I really appreciated the links, especially the plastic hexies. I'm not really a quilter but I've always wondered how to go about using those templates. I put up my embroidery samples with a link to your blog. Thanks for all of your help.
Your blog header is stunning, such a lovely way to commemorate family. And your blocks look a treat!
Those hexi templates are expensive! Clever idea if you make the hexis up as you go of course, so you need just afew at any one time. But think I prefer the papers and the ability to have them made in multiples until your ready to gets tuck and piece them. I quite like the flexibility too with paper though I can see some may prefer to have a firmer fabric to work with.
Block 3 is gorgeous and your colors are just right for the image. Love the heart from Trish Burr. Her embroidery is amazing. The hexie link is interesting however I have managed to steer clear of making any hexies. Jackson Brown's quote is something I do most days. Happy weekend dear...<3
Gorgeous block, Mary Anne. I am chomping at the bit to see this lovely project finished. Do you think you could stitch a little quicker.....please, please, pretty please. =) I am loving this new pretty of yours. Xx
