My Blooms

Yesterday i set to preparing more hexagon templates for my 1” petals . Got them all prepared & fabrics chosen when i went to get the 1/2” ones out. Damn remembered i’d run out of templates. So an internet search was in order. I didn’t find the original web site i used but found another that had 1/2” templates. Only down side of this web site is that it doesn’t fill the whole A4 paper up.

All templates now prepared & fabrics chosen i sat down to start making flowers. Here are my 1” blooms,

the 1/2” blooms,

and the baby 1/4” bloom.

I’ve been busy preparing more Christmas decorations. I finally managed to get a start on Bronwyn Hayes’ Sugarplum Tabletopper.

Only a little applique to go & then it’s on to the embroidery.

If it doesn’t get finished for this year at least i’ll have a head start for next years Christmas time. :) Lol.

All your blooms are very pretty, the darker ones get my attention. I am also almost out of templates and will have to remember where I found them. If I had a full sheet I could copy and print but I don't think I do.

Jeanette,

Look at your garden grow. It is beautiful, one bloom at a time. Love the Christmas quilt. Every year I say that I am going to make one, seriously, at the point of just buying one, lol. Great job.

Hugs,

 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...
