The Princess & the Pea

The two Stonefield blocks today are called the Princess & the Pea. 

The stars are EPP'd then appliqued onto the background fabric. After that, the circles were added.


Both blocks together.

Stonefields is designed by Susan Smith. 

I just realized that I made a mistake and I've got 2 posts today for handwork! Oh well, enjoy my blocks! Here is a link to Stonefields, Section 10 in case you missed it.

  3. Hi Gretchen, those are lovely blocks. I just found Rebecca's post last May about the Stonefield quilt. I didn't realise that it was so big, intricate and small :-)

  9. Now this one is what I would expect to see in a "Stonefields" block! Love the combo of EPP and applique. Two posts on handwork is not a bad thing --- the more the merrier!
