Here is my #11. I made a mistake when I cut the big flower and had to change the block a little bit! LOL.
Also, I changed the settings of the machine for the embroidery and didn't come up neat but didn't have the "heart" to do it again. If I cannot live with it when all are done I'll see. This quilt is for ME; it will be the first one staying home.
