Summer Stitching
Another long weekend, got to love them. I had plans to sew a block or two for Miss B's Seaglass sampler quilt, and do some more quilting on my Tula City Sampler quilt, however, it has been such glorious weather, that I have been sitting outside under the umbrella reading (Holding by Graham Norton) and working away on my Bird Dance project. There are the odd little quirks with these patterns, and I have replaced/muddled up some of the recommended stitches with other stitches - loving how these are looking though. Since I took these photos legs are now appearing on these birds too.
Edited: There are 30 blocks in total to make and each block is 6.5" unfinished.

They are so beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteThese are so pretty, even without their legs! Looks like a beautiful pattern, how big is each block?
ReplyDeleteI'm asking the same question as Linda on size, also how many birds? All sweeties!
ReplyDeleteI love the close ups of your lovely stitching..........looking fabulous. You will be pleased these are now huge blocks, you wouldn't want them on your lap in this heat! It's a scorcher here today!
ReplyDeleteYour birds are looking beautiful, but where are their eyes? :) I love the effect of the bullion type stitch or is it a drizzle stitch ?
ReplyDeleteThese are looking fabulous Julie! I love the variety of stitches you have used! I also love all the circular shapes in the backgrounds.
