Quilt Block

This is a sample block of what I am working on for a queen size quilt for me and my husband. I am on a different computer and don't have my picture thing worked it yet to have pics show the way I want them. Hopefully, I will get that straightened out soon.

It's a 14 1/2 " block with tiny prints my mother left me. They are very delicate tiny prints of pale pink, pale green, and a hint of black in there. On the alternate white blocks I decided to add a small hand embroidery abstract type flower in the centers. I hand pieced everything. I also have several more blocks completed toward my quilt, but this is the first to have the hand embroidered design on it. It was so much fun.

Thank you for looking. :)

I think it is going to be very nice once completed and can't wait to see it. I really enjoy hand embroidery, but haven't tried hand piecing.

Minibarn I too look forward to getting it finished. Any ideas on any colors for the binding or for that matter between the blocks? I haven't thought that far ahead, but welcome all input.

I hope you enjoy the process of making these pretty blocks. Lots of good memories of Mom as you work. Can't wait to see it finished.

Very lovely looking. My favorite type of quilt.

I think that will be an heirloom quilt. So delicate looking. A piece of your mother and you in it. Lovely

Yes, I think of my mother as I am piecing. I miss her so much.
