Happy May To You All!
I was so happy to be asked
to do a block for
the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks magazine.
&
here it is!
I used cotton fabric for the background,
beautiful hand dyed wool for
the applique pieces
and beautiful
Painter's Threads for
the embroidery
and ribbon flowers.
The picture in the magazine
is a little on the
dark side,
so if anyone would
like me to send them
a photo please just
email me
I think the block would make
a beautiful fall pillow
or
cute little wallhanging
with 4 blocks!
My husband and I
were sick
most of
March & April
with some sort of weird flu
but I kept working on my new
book when I could sit up for a few hours.
I have about one more week
until its ready for the printer!
Today I got to take a few pictures
and I love the way they turned out.
I have 4 copies of the magazine
to share with 4 of you!
If you please leave a comment,
I will pick the winners
when we return from a short trip!
I hope your spring is great so far,
thank you for visiting!

Such a great fall block! I like your idea of using it for a pillow.
Your block is beautiful.
That is so cute, I think I'll be making mine as a wall hanging. Thanks.
Your block is lovely. The threadwork is very effective.
I do hope both you and your husband are feeling much better. It is very frustrating ti be unwell for a long time.
And good luck with the final preparations for your book.
Beautiful detail work on your block (and all your quilts). I'm glad I was introduced to your site via the blog hop for the Quiltmaker magazine.
Cute block. Would make a cute small wallhanging for Fall.
I hope you and your hubby are feeling better. We have been going through a strangely long allergy season here in Maryland that just drains energy. Kudos being able to work on your book through your ailment! Congrats on a fantastic block. My fav! I'm going to put it on the to-do list for July. When temperatures soar (I'm not a summer heat fan), I'll work on it, to remind me that fall temperatures are right around the corner!!!
Awesome! Love the pumpkin!

I love the pumpkin for fall pieces when so many people use Halloween stuff since I am not a fan of it.
I like the texture and dimension that the wool gives to the block. And I love embroidering by hand.
