It's been months, several months, FIVE months, Five months and a day to be exact, since I blogged about Evening Bloom, my needle turn applique project by Blackbird Designs. Somehow, I got off track last fall, I started block 6 but just didn't get much past the starting point.
After so many months of not stitching I was worried my stitches would be back to beginner level, but I hadn't completely lost my touch, it feels great to be back at it, and here goes . . . .
Ta da, Block 6, all done, FINALLY!
I think it's my favorite block!!
Here are all 6 finished blocks, since I'm sure you've forgotten what they look like, I know I almost had.
Your Evening Bloom blocks are lovely Thelma! Very pretty.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! It's going to be another beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteI can't remember if you're using a template method or back basting these...?
They look great Thelma! Love your fabric choices! Have a happy week!
ReplyDeleteThese are simply stunning blocks! I love how you showed us the progression...it was like watching a flower bloom! So glad you got back to these blocks...it will be wonderful to see the final three. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous Thelma!!! It will be a stunning finish!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder. When I get all my boxes unpacked and my studio whipped into shape (after a cross-country move), I need to get working on that quilt.
ReplyDeleteIt is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you brought it back out to work on because I LOVE looking at these blocks. Just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOne of the many things I love about your quilts, Thelma, is your fabric selection. I know there is a book, "Quilting Makes the Quilt" but get the fabric wrong and it can be disastrous in my mind. You are always right on the (fabric) money!
ReplyDeleteOMG Thelma ! These blocks are just BEAUTIFUL ! Only 3 more to go, NO PROBLEM you are almost done ;-)
ReplyDeleteThey look fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful blocks Thelma! What method of applique are you using?
ReplyDeleteLovely blocks!
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful! I pulled the pattern out and was amazed at how HUGE the blocks finished. Has this been an issue for you? Seems like it would be awkward!?
ReplyDeleteJeanie, - this is my first hand applique project, so I don't have anything to compare it to. The blocks are big but I've had no trouble working with the big blocks or the big pieces.
ReplyDeleteYou are certainly a natural when it comes to applique! Your blocks are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThelma, this project is stunning. I want to make some houses too. Yours are adorable. Is there a link?
