Winter Finally Arrived, but Flowers are Blooming Inside!
We finally got a real snowstorm yesterday, but it’s so uplifting to be stitching bright, colorful tulips in bloom! These sets are part of a large block I’m working on:
and they all kind of “spring forth” from the center flower area:
(Sorry; I cannot seem to capture the background fabric color at all.) Do you see all those crosshairs that are near all 4 tulip sets? I can’t remove them yet because they will ensure the correct placement of the feather pairs that will line all 4 sides of the block. Here’s what it looks like at this point:
Working with these sure makes negotiating all this snow more bearable! Happy wintering…(not!)
Are these flowers all embroidered after having been digitized??
What stabilizer do you put underneath?
thanks
Ridiculously pretty! (As always)…Um ya, I’m not lovin’ the snow…:(

Beautiful flower blocks and a wonderful way to beat the winter blues.

Thank you for e-mailing me, what a wonderful
suprise!! You are one of my favorites. Thank
Your for your free motion tutorials, they seem
so hard for me. I am blind in my left eye and
deaf in one ear. I love to sew things for my
daughters and grandchildren. So I try so hard
to keep going because I love quilting so much and sewing. Thanks you!! 1/23/2012
You sure have a great eye for color! The blocks look great!
