Snowmen Block, 1st of 12
 

This is the first snowmen for this quilt top, oh the trees were such a pain. And what was I thinking there are a tree in just about every block. Block not pressed yet or trimed.

Ohhh, that's cute! The trees may be a pain, but what wonderful blocks you'll have when you are done!

I love it!

even tho the trees are a pain they are beautiful! I love how you can read bird seed on the sac, I can't get my embroidered words to be legible. Can't wait to see the next 11 :-)

That is really cool. Going to be a beautiful quilt.

Very cute! Is this from a pattern?

cute block

Going to be a great quilt!

Thank you, yes it's a pattern. The only thig I didn't like about this pattern the color picture you can't really see all details.

I buy alot of my patterns from here as well.

Thank you, I'm using satin thread and even though it say's to use 2 strands I'm using one, as with the small print of pattern 2 make it look really thick and blend together.

Looks good.

Beautiful block, wonderful work. Please show us the others as you finish them. Please show us the finished quilt also.

Single strand? No wonder it looks so precise! Lovely work.

Thanks so much everyone. I'm getting a big head!!!

Great start, can't wait to see the rest of them finished!!!

OMG ... There you go again. I love your work so much.

Thanks so much. My oldest daughter Tara does all my tracing for me, boy what a help this is. I pay her a little for doing it for me, this way we help each outher out.

Good job. Can't wait to see all of them.

Cute snowman block! Your stitching is always so lovely~

Really cute and lots of work! That is going to be a really darling quilt when you are done. I am in the process of doing a snowman applique quilt and we are doing two months at a time. Have the first 4 (except had stitching) done and still working on 5 & 6. We will both have awesome quilts when we are done.

Sweet, I love your handwork.

Thank you, would love to see your's as well.

It is beautiful!

Very cute. You're off to a good start.

Thank you.

That is so cute! I have a friend who collects snowmen who would love it! I do, too!

I love embroidery work.

Love the block! You did a good job.

You said you were using satin thread...is it just a sewing thread or regular embroidery thread...& is there a specific blue you used...I really like it...looks very nice .

Thank you, I used DMC # S798, I also use thread heven on it as it will fray more without it. It does not affect the floss at all.

That is beautiful. Love the blue. I am working on the Redwork Twitterings from epatterns Central and I am doing mines in blue also. It will hang in my dining room.
