Two more corner blocks mostly completed. They both need some embroidery, but as I plan to add some thread painting the to blocks before assembly, I thought I'd work on them all at the same time, so I don't have to change thread colours too often. The poor hummingbird looks strange with no beak! I am stitching the final two side panels, then I'm off to the machine. Then I'll finally get back to work on my Baltimore Bliss quilt - its been lonely lately.
Just returned from my group meeting - two more members arrived from the north this week - the group grows every week. We have a few members that don't arrive until the first week in January, and then we really gear up. We'll begin meeting from 11-3 every Wednesday, so they have more time to finish their projects. Along with re-learning the basic building blocks, some want to make a "Stack N Whack" quilt, a jacket based on a sweatshirt, some bags, and a lesson on "back basting" method of hand applique. Should be a busy winter.
I haven't seen this pattern before. I love what you are doing. Looking forward to seeing more blocks.
