You did a terrific job. They are lovely.
|
that is beautiful, you did a wonderful job on it
|
wow, sew cute.
|
Your Flower blocks are just absolutely stunning - I've never seen anything like that in the 3-D look - the flower seem like they can just jump right off the page...
I was wondering if you would be willing to share the pattern...I would love to learn how to do that - it's just to different - and absolutely so beautiful... Have a great evening! Bill [email protected] |

Looks beautiful and you did a great job !!!

Wow! So stunning! I think I would go with a slightly darker green binding so no attention would be on the frame and all focus on the flower! Great great job!!!

Its lovely and your work is sooo beautiful!
Can you tell me the name of the pattern and where you bought it? I'd like to look at it :lol: Patti Ah Patti Thanks for your comments - yes the Geranium is a sort of 3D effect which I think makes it look so realistic. I'll email you the info, do you want the other 9 (I think) LOL blocks that go with it. Each one is a different flower. If I remember before I go to my next meeting I'll get the lady those made all of them to bring the quilt along for me to take pics & then I can post here for all to see. That won't be until the third Monday in the month though if you don't mind waiting until then. :D Let me know for certain. Tisha |
Totally awesome work! Very inspiring!

Thanks for your comments - I have the pattern if you want a copy PM me with your email address & I'll forward it onto you. There are about 9 different flower blocks in total. Each one as beautiful as each other. :wink: Tisha |
