I've looked at all of the blocks so far and they look great...maybe I can start and get caught up with you guys.

Or just start with the current one and catch up when you can. There is no hurry. The main thing is to have fun doing it and, in my case anyway, to improve on my skills. I haven't finished doing all my corner blocks yet myself but I just pick it up when I can. With applique, if there is one thing that I've learned, it doesn't pay to hurry.

No secret at all just didn't send pictures as I had sent the ones when I did the rouching. Here they are.

Fanci, love the blocks, the ruching is the perfect touch and like how you layered the flowers. Great job. Thanks for sharing, I was only teasing about the big secret.

Hobby, your hearts look great, love the fabric you choose. The darker fabric accents the big heart perfectly.

Pam, Welcome, glad you are joining us. We have 13 more months to go so there is plenty of time to catch up. If you need any links to previous blocks, post and I'll add them.

I'm busy working on May's block, I'll do a block plus the side blocks of the inner border.

April blocks finished waiting for May :) Have a good day ladies. Peg i have been practising turn applique can i mix buttonhole and turn applique to this project? I am OK with big flowers the small one i am better with buttonhole applique:)

I am having a terrible time trying to needle turn these small flowers on the corner blocks. Any suggestions?

capucine

Yes that's why i did button hole applique on the small flowers:) they are too fiddly.

Try some fabric glue or starch on them and pre-form them before putting them on the back?
