happy flower qal week 14
June 5, 2017 Whoa. Who else can't believe it's June already?
So. If you're quilting along with Wynn, Melissa, and me, how's it going? Are you enjoying all the block-making? Don't worry if you haven't "kept up". That's not the point of this project. We're here to inspire, cheer, entertain, coach, keep you company ... We creative people don't always have the wherewithall - for one reason or another - and that's totally ok. Life is never a straight line and neither is the process of making. So whether you're nearly done this quilt or you haven't even pulled your fabric for the first block, this quilt is waiting for you to make whenever you are available. :)
In the meantime, I hope you're enjoying all the posts - have you been following us on IG at #happyflowerqal? There is a growing number of beautiful blocks that are soooo fun to look at and are very inspiring!
So here are my blocks for this week.
What is it about any block set on point that just takes it to another level? Especially these simple 4-patches. Gosh they're cute!
These cherries ... I'm particularly happy with the yellow background. Makes the cherries seem like they're ripening in the sun. The stems in the original block are made with ricrac. It adds a super charming detail, like it had been salvaged from an old pillowcase or a little girl's dress and retrieved from a sewing basket or a tin of rescued notions. But I didn't have any in my sewing room, and I didn't feel like sourcing some out and buying it so I just embroidered mine.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope you have a great week!
