I managed to get caught up last night - just in time. I apologize for what I was thinking, that I 'd much rather do circles than the fiddly bits of some of the last few blocks. I didn't know what was coming next! At least I have a month to get all the grapes done. The 'fingers' above the buds/berries in blocks 12 and 14 really didn't seem very difficult, though.
I left the bud and leaf off the center flower on block 15 that hang over the vase. After doing the first one, I decided it wouldn't show enough. I also did three layers on the center flower instead of five so my fabrics would show. As I've said before, reverse applique is not my favorite but I did it. The yellow I used for the background on those pieces has a red print in it and, in a few of the sections, the print is the part that shows.
Now on to cutting circles.
You have been working hard behind the scenes. I love what you've done. All your blocks are so harmonious. Block 12 and Block 14 seem to be identical patterns with the inner circle left out of #14. Looking forward to seeing what you do with No 16.
ReplyDeleteEach of your blocks is simply wonderful! Colors are super! The pressure is on now for those of us behind to get moving!!
ReplyDeleteThey are all great! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOMG! I just checked out the new block. Is it not enough that we have to do a thousand circles for the borders?!!! I am not sure this block is going to get done in a timely manner. It might be one that will be worked on throughout the rest of the blocks. (sigh)
ReplyDeleteYOur blocks are all beautiful :) I love applique, I find it so relaxing to sit and work on in the evening!
ReplyDeleteWhat stunning blocks, I have a very long way to catch up. I wonder who is going to do different circles in #16 or go with an average size.
ReplyDeleteYou aare teh applique machine Mary!! I love all of them and the few changes you made are going in my notebook.;)
ReplyDeleteYour blocks look fabulous, you've got enough to share a pic of them laid out together. Please? Janet, I'm going to go with an average size, probably 5/8" as that is what I've been making for block 7.
ReplyDeleteIs the sentimentalstitches.net site still working? When I enter it, I get a website for sale type page, am I doing something wrong?
ReplyDeleteOh no! I just checked for sentimental stitches and it's not working correctly. This is not good. I wonder what happened?!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous blocks, Mary! Love your recent blocks. This quilt is going to be a stunner!
