Would you like to see what I have been working on? You know my hobbies? Well yes, I know I have been away for a very very loooong time. My apologies. I have been very hmmmm busy, sort of. And sometimes not so busy. Okay, no excuses really. I have some pictures of a couple of large quilt blocks I have been working on since Jan. 2019. I am doing a block of the week with Pat Sloan. Not sure I will do all the blocks as they come out but the ones I do I will post a picture. I have an idea of a wall hanging I want to do with one of the blocks. I am still mulling it over. I'll fill you in when I figure it out for sure.
This is the first block I thought it came out quit good. I was surprised at how nice my points are. I had been having problems with my light weight brother.(I think I wore it out over the last few years). My sister (bless her) she loaned me one of her light weight brother machines and now I can sew much straighter lol.
This is another block which I am really quit proud of. Not bragging, just estatic about how nice it looks. My center block, ironically was not suppose to have perfect points. For some reason I got on point great the others not so great, but none of them looked like the pattern ha go figure. the thing about this block is how I fussy cut the oval shape with the flowers in the middle and then I appliqued it onto the on point square.
It is difficult to see, but I did a zig-zag around it in white. I am wanting to do more with the applique Maybe a wall hanging; like I mentioned above.
