Another week gone by and we are just about at the end of March.....
Over the weekend I finished off the top of my Schoolgirl Sampler.....
I had done quite a few of the HST's for the border....
It is slightly different from the pattern as I was trying to use up fabric I already had
There was enough of the orange to make the binding as well..... it's a good lap quilt size...
The little Field Journal embroideries have started again this year and I have done my first 4 ......
the blocks cut back to 4 1/2"
most of these ones were stitched in one evening....
.. they are very pretty and fun to sew....
I picked up the next four this week so have them waiting next to my chair now....
Awake in the early hours this morning.... maybe it's that very fat full moon????
Righto, Gotto Go... take care, keep safe... happy stitching....
those embroidery blocks are so pretty
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on getting your sampler quilt to the flimsy stage. Pretty stitcheries.
ReplyDeleteYour sampler is very pretty - the low contrast look suits it well. Pretty stitcheries too! Yes, the full moon gives me a couple of sleepless nights each month.....don't like that at all.
ReplyDeleteWell done on your Schoolgirl Sampler Quilt top finish. It's beautiful and I must admit, I've enjoyed watching your progress. The Tilda prints are so pretty.

ReplyDeleteI’m loving your Schoolgirl Sampler! It looks so dainty and sweet! You made all those stitcheries in one night? That’s amazing! Can’t wait to see the next four! XO
ReplyDeleteIt seems there is never enough time in a week to finish all the things we planned for, but you have made some beautiful pieces in that time.

Very nice finish on your Schoolgirl Sampler - I like the HST border. Good to see the Field Journal stitcheries back again - they are very pretty. xx
ReplyDeleteI love the Field Journal embroideries! Your stitching is fabulous. When I googled it, it showed as a bom that included liberty fabrics. Is that what you are doing?
ReplyDeleteYour Sampler looks so sweet! So soft and lovely. And the flower embroideries are very pretty, too. They are smaller than I would have thought :)
