#6 and a start on #16

Wondering how many leaves we will have appliqued when all is said and done??? Eventually I will master those little pointed ends...


 Have closed my eyes to the fact that #16 looks out of whack...those vines follow the original pattern...except for the 4 stems which lead to the clusters of cherries...I am thinking about doing the embroidery links a little differently....at least one of the cherries is in place:o)

 Now on to getting #7 ready to go...

  1. I think you are doing really good applique stitching. It is interesting to see the fabric choices each person is making.

  5. Block # 6 is looking good. I was a bit put off too by the lopsided vine in Block #16.

  6. I thought the same thing about the crooked vines, but once you add the grapes it seems to be more balanced. Block 6 looks good!!!

  7. Plaids, checks, dots! Perfect. I am going to follow your idea in this block.

  8. I think this is one of the prettiest of all the blocks. Love how you can do all the layers. Makes it really rich looking. Waiting on 18 now.

  9. I love your fabric combinations and like the other comments, I too love plaids and usually have two or three in all the quilts I make - my signature. Yes the grape vine does look a little squiffy but as Mary says I think it will come right once all the grapes are added.

    PS I don't know why you're worrying about your points they look great to me :-))
