Didn't this one make a nice (easy) change from the last one?

I am still cutting away as much as I can to keep the bulk and stiffness down

I put my centre fabric, and then surrounded it by hearts, onto the coloured background first.

Basted the coloured background to the black

Yea, but I forgot the put a fabric in the center for contrast. However, I like the way it turned out anyway!

Butterflyspain 03-28-2011 04:09 AM

But they turned out beautiful. Gorgeous blocks yet again

Looks good to me, certainly not worth re-doing.

It is nice to have a quicker one to work on after a more fiddly one.

sandpat 04-11-2011 10:26 AM

I'm trying to pick the fabs for this one right now. Hmmm...so many choices!!! LOL!

That's almost the hardest part Patti - especially when I settle on what I think might look good, and then put it near it's neighbours and find they look too similar.

sandpat 04-11-2011 03:05 PM

Well, I got them all selected and cut out today along with the fabs for block 22 as well. That should keep me busy for a few days...LOL...

Pretty shades in this one Elle.

Butterflyspain 04-15-2011 10:53 AM

Yes I liked this with the green and the different shades of lavender to purple, muted but kinda nice

luvmortherest 04-15-2011 06:25 PM

Here is my block 23. This one I worked on in the evenings during my trip from Arizona back to Washington. Was a nice way to spend the lonely evenings in hotel rooms. This was one of my favorites to work on so far.

I likeit with the coloured background, I forgot to do that :?

Another lovely block

Lacelady 04-16-2011 02:11 PM

Another gem, Judy - I did the background in the middle too.

sandpat 04-16-2011 04:31 PM

I felt like I was on vacation doing this one compared to the last block! It was great!! Only about 6 hours for me..if that many. I did it like Lesley...did the center portion on the light ground, then attached that to the background. I did add a few more whirlies in embroidery to the center...it looked a bit plain to me.

Butterflyspain 04-21-2011 06:03 AM

Loverly, I had to go look to see if I had done this one yours looks so different with the coloured centre I really like it that way and ofcourse I love your fabric choices.

sandpat 04-21-2011 06:51 AM

Thanks Elle, it appears that I should have swapped the places on 2 of those rust hearts...but..too late now!!!

JudyG 04-21-2011 06:52 AM

Very, very pretty, Patti. Love the red fabric in the large hearts. It was nice to work on an easy one for a change, wasn't it?

sandpat 04-21-2011 07:12 AM

Oh gosh...you betcha!!

Butterflyspain 04-21-2011 07:32 AM

Here is 23 Embroidered

d.rickman 05-01-2011 08:50 AM

Love the colors in this Block, beautiful, again terrific embroidery!

Butterflyspain 05-01-2011 08:52 AM

Thanks Donna, havenīt done embroidery for years so I am enjoying this challenge. the secret is on those rounds to take teeny stitches.

d.rickman 05-01-2011 08:55 AM

Takes lots of patience to do a nice job with embroidery,and you have succeeded - you really do nice work!

Butterflyspain 05-01-2011 09:01 AM

Thanks, I know I do a lot of walking away from the embroidery and go do something else, then I go back to it. I find it quite tiring

sandpat 05-01-2011 05:05 PM

Well, you are whizzing on getting them done! So...these won't go to Turkey..it will be the half tris...LOL!

Butterflyspain 05-02-2011 01:17 AM

Well Patti, I am back to choosing the fabric for the half triīs so canīt take them with me, so at the moment I am cutting out the materials for the next few blocks so that I can take them with me. Will bag them up so I donīt loose those teeny pieces.

I have enough material left for just 2 more triīs,that will be 4 all the same and I plan to get some pink multi, just havenīt found the right one
