While at retreat, I finished the applique on Elegant Garden Block 3 and that happened Sunday morning.
Elegant Garden is an older quilt designed by Edyta Sitar from Laundry Basket Quilts. The fabrics I'm using are from my civil war fabric tub and I'm determined not to buy any new fabric for this project.Linking to Kathys Slow Stitching Sunday, Stitching Stuff, Oh Scrap, Handmade Monday, Sew & Tell, Craftastic Monday, Design Wall Monday, Monday Musings, To Do Tuesday

ReplyDeleteThat is a pretty block! I love those greens and pink together.
ReplyDeleteI had used a red fabric first but it just didn't work. I removed it then appliqued the pink. It definitely was the best choice.
DeleteThat is a very pretty block.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your wonderful applique skills.
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely block. As always, fabulous applique. I'm sure you have all the pretty fabrics for this quilt in your stash.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely block Gretchen. You always inspire me. Have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteWith the use of civil war era fabrics, this block has a sentimental and nostalgic vibe about it. You don't have to BUY fabric if you can just receive some as a gift :-)
