Looks sew pretty!!! Thanks Libster!!! Yes it will be used for sure. I rarely appliqué by hand, the eyes just aren’t as good as they used to be. So yes, love it.
Here is my second one for Sewbiz, it’s a Dahlia Star, but I added a vintage button to compliment the center and make it even more ladylike. I didn’t hand appliqué the center but it is turned under so it will be stable with the extra fabric for the flower petals. I plan on doing at least one more tonight, I have an idea for my next skull so I’m going to try to tackle it. We have lousy weather here today so it is definitely a stay home and sew day. Hugs all!

Thank you, Bonnie. I had fun making them today. I just realized I only have two more blocks to do for the Azalea group. I already have them decided on and most of the prep work done. Guess I'll be on to the Begonia's group then. I am really enjoying our Boom this time. Absence from the last Boom definitely made this heart fonder. I missed you guys! I love seeing what's being created this go-round!

Thank you sewbizgirl! What a fun blocks. I am very excited about the blocks made for the chicken quilt. It promises to be a beautiful and fun quilt based on all the stunning blocks people made. I really enjoyed reading about the pieced star block and its history also. Both blocks are gorgeous. Thank you!

Annaquilts, I'm going to have a rough time letting go of those chicken blocks when they come through my hands in a couple of months! lol. Sewbiz, Love your star block with the adorable chicken fabric and your pieced chicken. Great job.
Blocks in the gallery should all be caught up now. .
