Friday's Report ....on Sunday!

I was out all day on Friday and then there was FNSI (Go HERE to see what I did) to blog about so I decided to bring you my weekly report today....Sunday!

And, furthermore, I got very little stitching done this last week, so this is actually the previous weeks Friday Report!

I did do some work on Blue Fusion and stitched a little on Little Bird Quilt but I am really happy to report that I finished block 3 of The Garden Tea Party



I really can't believe how quickly I got this stitched....even though I have said before, that when I start stitching this one, I just can't put it down! I started on the Teddy.....


The only think left is to put a light straight stitch in each eye to make them come alive.  There are more daisies in this block....starting with her head band.


 And a couple of new flowers were added to this months block....at first, when I traced the daffodils, I thought they would be hard but actually they were easy to do...


 I love the effect....really do look like daffies...


The little flowers in the grass were just french knots with daisy stitch leaves....a real mess to trace so I had to do them very carefully to avoid a jumbled mess of french knots...they worked out in the end. I really like that they are done in variegated thread.


Please join me tomorrow for Design Board Monday which will be back to normal at Bits 'n Bobs and share your weeks creations.....

on Mondays
