Natures Journey - January

January's blocks are done for the Stitch along. Not sure i'm happy with them. I decided against using Astor Manor & went with civil war/repro fabrics. The embroidery thread is vintage rose by cottage garden threads. I also made a change. I didn't want to embroider the date for the quilt so i made another square to applique instead.
Happy Stitching,

I think they look great; is there a specific reason you're unsure? Good job on substituting the block!

 At the start of March i had this pile of blocks. I couldn't get my head around how to turn all these differing block sizes into a quilt...
