Block 2 of the Flower Patch Mystery has been pieced. I admit it's not perfect but it's pieced. I was watching an interesting movie while piecing and wasn't always paying attention to what I was doing.
I could have made the bird into a bluejay but I thought cardinals always bring so much joy in winter, so I added red to my fabric collection.
Here is block 3.
I think the leaves are so neat, so delicate looking!

ReplyDeleteLove the cardinals!!!
ReplyDeleteTHose are beautiful blocks!
ReplyDeleteyou'll have to share what the interesting movie was ;-)
I was watching Still Life. It is the first book in the Gamache series by Louise Penny. It's on Acorn TV.
DeleteLovely. Your red tulip is beautiful. Thank you for sewing along.
ReplyDeleteI had to come back and look again. I LOVE that batik you used for the geese and your background fabric. They play so well together.
ReplyDeleteThat fabric is leftover from another project. I love it when I'm able to make something pretty with fabrics I already have on hand. My daughter wants this quilt when it's finished, she's loving these blocks.
DeleteLove the cardinals and also the red varigated tulip.
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are turning out great. I've been downloading the blocks for that QAL, but I haven't made any of them yet. I'm looking forward to following your progress.
ReplyDeleteI love the red cardinals and tulip. I have been saving the steps for this but have not sewed as I have so many projects in the works. I shall enjoy seeing your garden quilt as it grows. Thank you for linking up ... :) Pat
ReplyDeleteThe blue in your bird block is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLovely blocks! Loving that pop of red that you're adding. Thanks for sharing on Wednesday Wait Loss.
ReplyDeleteI love cardinals for winter projects! That is a neat project, with flying geese too - my favorite. That red you are using is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking to To Do Tuesday!
Your blocks are beautiful, Gretchen. I always think of cardinals at winter time too,though I see them year round. Your fabrics are beautiful. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are lovely and I like that you've added the red. I too have been saving the instructions - it looks like it will be a great quilt.
