very nice blocks.

Wow that group looks like so much fun! All of your blocks are wonderful (my favorite is the first pink one and I'm not a fan of pink - which just goes to show how pretty I think that block is LOL). I look forward to see the other blocks you create :)

Loverly!!!

stichinluvr 09-04-2012 06:46 PM

That fits the bill very well.

Gorgeous blocks. What size were the fans on the dresden plates. I particularly like that size. Thanks for sharing.

It's a 12.5" block. I just played with various sizes until I had them to fit pretty well. I was going to measure them for you but I can't find the little beggar on my table.

When I look at it now, I can see where some don't line up super duper but oh well, it's unique. Glad you like it though.

Very pretty. I'm looking forward to seeing the next one.

WisWis 09-05-2012 09:36 AM

Charlottemarie send plain green fabric but she also sent a swatch of her matching fabric. Once I saw her matching, I knew what I had to do. This is the most detailed applique I've attempted so I'm pretty happy about it. Hope she enjoys it hopping around her house soon.

Okay, got 2 more finished today so I can send them home.

Anastasia had the blue basket weave and wanted blue, purple, grey, black or white....
Well, I guess I got the blues and the whites -- just hope this fits in with her others.

Jacquie sent some wonderful blue fireworks fabric from across the pond :). She wanted the colors in the fabric used so Dad said this one matched pretty well.

Phew, couple more ready to head to the east coast.

Lovingizabella sent in some wine colored background covered in peacock feathers. Nothing in my mind could do it justice except of course..... a peacock in it's glory. Dad says it's feet are too tiny but I thought they were just fine. I even had some shiny rainbow thread to do the stitching!
[ATTACH=CONFIG]361926[/ATTACH]

Buddy'smom sent in some scary glittery ghosties. What better way to calm down ghosts but to have a sweet witch with her kitten to guard over you.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]361927[/ATTACH]

No patterns for these, just used pictures from the google search and went from there.

Anastasia 09-10-2012 11:00 PM

Those are super cute! Did you see my peacock I'm making for her? Yours was my original idea but I didn't have a rounded dresden and when I went on a hunt for a suitable pattern/pic to use in lieu of it, I found the one I'm making. I wonder how many peacocks she's going to end up with :D it's gonna be a quilt full of them I bet. That purple kitten is so freaking adorable it makes me sick. Stop being so amazing at this applique stuff. haha

sewgarden 09-10-2012 11:30 PM

Very pretty and girlie.

quiltingmommy 09-12-2012 09:18 AM

Do you have time for an extra quilt swap? Your finished blocks are so darn cute that I would love for you to do one of mine as well..I'm in the pearl group but do have a little more fabric available for swapping. Let me know

LovingIzabella 09-12-2012 10:59 AM

Lisa I love love love my block! Thanks so much!

Immemother from down under sent a wonderful teal print with songbirds. I couldn't come up with a fitting design in my mind as it zigged and zagged around with ideas. So, I picked up a book and viola! There was a zig zag pattern!

I don't think I'll be doing one of these again...sooooo many little HST.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]362419[/ATTACH]

Yes, each one is a HST...yikes yikes and more yikes.

immemother 09-12-2012 09:51 PM

I love it!!!!!!!!!!!

NYgal sent some oriental fabric...so Sunbonnet Sue had to go East...very very far East. She seemed to adapt to the culture :)

Anastasia 09-16-2012 05:50 PM

Too cute! And you still make me sick with your awesome applique skills :P

moonwork42029 09-16-2012 09:14 PM

Oh thanks.... I had to add the umbrella because she had a lady coming out of her head, lol... it was pretty weird so it required some creative additions.

Two more to add tonight...only have one left to go for a side swap and all my blocks will be finished for this go around.

ctmhjenn sent some wonderful pastel flowers. Hopefully this will fit in with her theme.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]368692[/ATTACH]

tlambing had a "voting" thread to help me decide on which layout to use for her black fabric. Since she "voted" I did give her vote a little more weight :)

ctmhjenn 10-09-2012 07:38 PM

So cool. I am going to do a block for Jaba that will go great with yours, but then, they ALL will that we make..
I have all the same fabric and I am definitely going to borrow her idea.. thanks for sharing.

The last one....sad in some ways but woohoo in others!

This was for a side swap with quiltingmommy. She sent the tiny green dots along with the brown with pink dots and asked if I could use them both...Tada! That was easy to do with a little Sue

jojosnana 10-10-2012 06:04 PM
