It took me longer to embroider this block because I spent a lot of my evening hand sewing time at the sewing machine piecing scrappy quilts.
Here's a picture of the four completed blocks, there are four more blocks to be embroidered.
Prepping is still continuing on the EPP project. Hopefully I'll have something to show you next Sunday.
Linking to Kathy's Slow Sunday Stitching, Show & Tell Monday With Bambi, Love Laugh Quilt, Small Quilts, Em's Scrapbag, Esther's Wednesday WOW!

Your embroidery is beautiful. That is going to be an amazing quilt!
All four blocks are beautiful. The tulips are my favorite, but the poppies are a close second.
So old fashioned looking and so pretty.
I love your blocks! Esp the poppies :) Kathi

Wonderful embroderies! It looks so beautiful :)
Simply gorgeous the embroidered blocks look so pretty together.
Looks great! Can't remember if you told us your EPP project. Looking forward to seeing it progress along.
Hi Gretchen! Poppies always make me smile. I used to pass a house on the way to work. Each spring they had a huge patch of poppies that would bloom - they are such a happy orange. The patch grew larger each year, and I always looked forward to seeing it for a few weeks. ~smile~ Roseanne
Your embroidery is gorgeous!
Thank you very much for your inspiration on the Show and Tell Monday !! Bambi
Ohhh Gretchen those embroidered blocks are beautiful, they remind me of sitting in the winter by the fire in NZ with my mum as a tiny girl and watching her do blocks just like these, the start of my love of coloured threads? ????? Cheers Glenda
Gretchen, as a lover of embroidery, I adore these blocks. Coincidentally, I just changed my header to my embroidered poppies from a Crabapple Hill pattern. I will look for Darlene Zimmerman; thanks!
Very Pretty Gretchen!
