Blooming again



Thanks for all your comments on my scrappy flowers and buds.
I made a few bigger leaves today
and auditioned backgrounds,
finally settling on this black Lipinski print
These blocks are big -- about 17 by 20 inches

Here's the full blown flower on the right, and three buds on the left.
I've started to hand applique the leaves on the left block.
This may be the first of a series of blocks, or maybe not.

Just as the gardens start to go dormant for the fall/winter yours is blooming again. They are wonderful, great idea. Can't wait to see more!

Wow, I love these happy flowers, are they being hand appliqued?

That black really brings out the colors, at the same time it's a subtle "print". Good choice. Love the flower and buds and leaves! I haven't done much applique... maybe I should get some together for TV time. Thanks for the inspiration.
Hugs,

I love these and didn't realize they were so big! I'm making a crumb quilt and these would be a great addition. Can't wait to see how you set them.
