This post is for my own benefit as much as anything, but I thought I'd share pictures of each of the 'Courtship' blocks all together in one place. So...here goes....
You can click on each of the pictures to embiggen them (and I *think* you can double-click to embiggen them even further). For those of you who missed my post yesterday, scroll down and you can see the reveal of the entire piece.
Today our hearts go out to those who lost loved ones in Manchester and in my search for a quote to share, I turned to one of my favourite authors, Ralph Waldo Emerson....."Fear defeats more people than any other one thing in the world"
We simply can't let them win.
Great crochet patterns and you really have put a lot of very nice stitches into your crazy quilt project.
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful, I love it. One can't stop looking at this pieces. Have a good day today.

ReplyDeleteEntrigue, soulmate and entice. I could not pick just one.
I need to get motivated to do some stitching :). The finished work is wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderfully blissful revisiting your sublime hexagons, again, Mary Anne! I have "embiggen" them, as you would say, and have slowly absorbed each exquisite detail. I sit here amazed at the time, artistry and gorgeous imaginations you have so lovingly stitched; as this is a work of love. I could happily gaze upon your Courtship hexagons forever. =) Though I tried, I cannot choose a favourite as all are exquisitely amazing in their own way. Much applause is happening down here......can you hear it??

ReplyDeletebeautiful work as always Mary Anne.....the world needs more of this gentle beauty...
ReplyDeleteGood Morning!! I just love looking at your blocks. My favorite thing about your style is your ability to create not just exquisite seams, but your filler motifs and how you incorporate buttons, beads and other doodads. These are all so pretty.

Your CQ "Courtship" blocks are so stunning. Do you ever keep track of the countless hours you work on them? They are Priceless and Heirloom Treasures. The entire quilt turned out Beautifully. Fun links and I love the felt flower pincushions. So much sadness and hate in our world. Good MUST conquer evil. Prayers and Healing for all in Manchester. <3
ReplyDeleteOh yes, being able to look at them close up is wonderful! They are all beautiful and look fabulous all together!
ReplyDeleteThese are all stunning! You do beautiful work.
ReplyDeleteThe day after the attack in Manchester, I heard a radio station that focused solely on the way complete strangers pulled together to help. The stories ranged from a homeless man that administered first aid, to cab drivers offering free rides in the aftermath. If the media only focused on the positive ways terrorist attacks pull communities together, I wonder if we'd see fewer attacks... My hearts and prayers are everyone affected.
