This is the flimsy before I quilted it. These were long ago swap blocks from 2002 I think, I had 4 blocks from Moira @The Quilted Snail, one of which I am using for the label. I also had a block from Susan @Desertsky Quilting. I'll get better pictures today after I am able to take another, and I need to write another post about progress on the Hands2Help quilts.
The other handwork I've been working on is Hospital Sketches, the applique BOM by Barbara Brackman @Civil War Quilts. This is a poor picture, it doesn't show the true colors. Hope to get a better one when I finish.

Binding and appliqué, that sounds like my Sunday afternoon today! The finished quilt looks great, I do love all those stars. 😍
ReplyDeleteLove all those blocks in your flimsy! How striking it looks with all those stars in red, white and blue! Happy stitching on your BOM.....it is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThe applique BOM looks interesting... thanks for sharing with us!
ReplyDeleteI'm so impressed with your Hospital Sketches. I really like the blocks - was playing around with the coxcomb and bird ideas for where to put the bird, but I'm not adding another applique until I finish the one you just finished! Six blocks to go. Soon. Your quilts are always so well done and nicely designed.
