The rest of the blocks in section 7 of Stonefields are completed. First are four Wrysedale blocks.
I chose to make a design change with these four blocks. The melons are supposed to be enclosed in a circle which means the outside of the fabric would be different than the background fabric of the applique.
I thought these blocks looked just fine as they are and didn't add the circles.
Next are the two Neil's Dairy blocks which you saw last Wednesday after they were pieced.
The yellow hearts are the same fabric as the center circles in the Wrysedale blocks.
Last are two appliqued blocks called Lucille.
There are several variations of this stick flower in this quilt. I didn't like the tiny curves that the pattern has at the top of the flower so I decided to do broderie perse instead.
The broderie perse may not look right but I don't care. I do admit I'm getting tired of these blocks but I don't want to stop and have a project halfway completed. I really am getting close to the end, just 36 more blocks to make. I'm hoping to be finished making these blocks by springtime. I will probably put the blocks into time out until later then sew them for the flimsy center.
Section 7 is blocks 74 - 85. I chose to not do two of the designs, my quilt, my decision. I duplicated several of the blocks in this section.
Stonefields is designed by Susan Smith.

Lovely set of blocks, Gretchen--you are to be commended for sticking with these--I should have such staying power...
I do like that you are making them "your own version". ;)))
hugs, Julierose
