Thanks for your kind words, Judith. I have been side-tracked by a few other projects, some holiday-related, some not. But I plan to get working on my LTG in the new year. Will look forward to seeing your progress!

I'm doing Holiday related stuff too. Today I embroidered an AnitaGoodesigns pillow with a Santa. When I needed color # 22 I realized I switched #20 and #21....considering it's in an embroidery hoop it's hard to rip but I had to so out came my very shard scissors and carefully I snipped the threads. Of course I snipped a hole in the fabric!! Because of the dense embroidery I just used some WSS on top and embroidered the whole thing again. No shifting which is a miracle!
Now hopefully it will hold when it has to be washed. Which will be one day in the far future :D :D :D

Oh man.....I don't do embroidery but I have snipped into fabric by mistake when ripping out stitches. I hate when that happens. Be sure to share Santa pillow when done.

I'm doing some holiday projects, too, then I can get back to quilting my Lori Holt quilt. The whole thing is applique so it is super heavy...I'm halfway done, thank goodness.

I wasn't too happy either Teen. But it seems it's all holding up. I removed the WSS this morning and it's still in one piece LOL

Please show the Lori Holt quilt when finished. Can't wait to see it. I love those flowers!!!

Here are my (going to be) pillows. They're AnitaGoodesigns.

Gorgeous work, Anael....all so detailed. I can't imagine the thread changes for these... I need to site with someone and watch this process cuz I have no clue about embroidery machines and hoops etc. and, I'll share the finished Holt quilt when done. I'm pleased with the quilting, so far. My biceps are killing me...lol..

Here are my first 3 blocks of my LTG. Two bow ties and the star in a square. I decided to use the whites with black as my background fabrics and I think they look good. Tomorrow I will sew up the UK Cross blocks.

The brownish color in the bottom photo is actually a vibrant magenta.[ATTACH=CONFIG]620795[/ATTACH]

Thank you! They both had over 30 thread changes.l
I'll work something out for you :)

I know about muscle aches but consider it a win win. Quilt done, no need to go to the gym for a while LOL
Can't wait to see it!

Wow Anita!!!! Those blocks are beautiful! Well done! That will be a stunning LTG once finished!

Thanks. It will be bright, that's for sure. :)

I was intimidated when I first saw JK's patterns (bought GW first), but working on LTG, I realize really how simple they are to make.

Luckily, 90% of the fabrics I am using are from my stash. Hope to sew some more blocks either tonight or definitely tomorrow. Will post more pictures as I am completing the blocks.

Anita....I love your blocks.. I use black & white backgrounds a lot cuz they really make the block colors more vibrant in contrast. It is true in your blocks. Looks fantastic...well done! Black and white and bright is my all time fav!!
