A little Finish

Several years back i stitched up 6 Christmas blocks from Wendy. I had put them away & totally forgot all about them until recently. I was digging through a crate for something else & discovered them.Wendy had designed a stitchery that went across the ends which i hadn't stitched but i wanted to make something up with the little stitcheries so they didn't sit around again for several years.

Sadly as i was trimming i went a little to far over on 1 of them & had to leave it out as the stitched part went under the 1/4 " seam. Guess that comes from trying to do things quickly by stacking them instead of trimming back each block individually.

Here is what i created.
I took a photo of each side so the stitcheries can be seen.
To much morning glare even though the blind is shut.

Happy Stitching,

That is really lovely Jeanette ... I love how you have staggered the stitcheries. If you hadn't said, we would never have known you had cut one wrong & left it out.

 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...
