    oh, I love this too. My dad used to have his own darkroom. I love flowers especially, guess that's why I love floral fabrics. I take mostly grandbaby pictures, but hope to be getting some quilty pics this year, too. I would love to do some planting for my front porch, but I have so much going on already. Maybe I'll buy a few. This is a beautiful time of year :D

    The last couple of days I have been trying to use up all the teeny bits, using foundation piecing as some of the blocks will only be 3" finished ranging up to 12
    I was going to ask you if they were done with foundation piecing. I love foundation piecing! Do you have a great book you can suggest?

    Your blocks are beautiful, BTW

    Izy, I love every single one of your paper pieced blocks. This is my favorite technique for quilting right now. You could put them together as a sampler. There are many that compliment each other. Someone would be really blessed and happy to receive a quilt or wall hanging of thiese works of art.
