Flower Patch Sew Along, Blocks 12 & 13

Block 12 of the Flower Patch mystery is another bird block. I've made cardinals again as opposed to blue jays, they add color to my darker batik blues.


I think block 13 is the prettiest block of all! There were 2 different options for the center, I liked the 2nd option best.
Here are the top three rows sewn together. Block 13 is the first block in the 4th row and is not included in these pictures. 
The flying geese chain is so lovely! 

I took these pictures in the snow earlier this month when it snowed. I thought it was fitting with the cardinals. Cardinals bring such a splash of color in the wintertime.

I won't be posting for a week or so. I'm flying Wednesday afternoon to Phoenix for my spring visit. I never visit in the summer, 120* is too HOT even for this heat lover.

Happy Tuesday, Gretchen. This is such a beautiful quilt and though I love all of the blocks I have to agree with you, I am drawn to block 13. Your fabrics are so yummy. Happy quilting.
