Thanks Abi!

As part of my Calendar Girl experience with Friendly Stitchers, Abi sent me these lovely threads and the wonderful fabric.  The colors are right up my alley!  Thank you so much, Abi!

All Seams Right for Gerry

Another seamwork block done - this one for Gerry.  She's going to be using it as part of a garment, so no real big, chunky things on it.  I hope she likes what I've done.

Stars and Stripes

Another temari, this time from a combination eight.  I made up the pattern, though it's fairly simple.  It's to be one of  the ones I give away for Christmas.

More Jewels - Diane

Diane wanted all flowers on her block, no gold, and no primitive.  This is the plain block I decided to work on.  The swirls at the top looked like stems to me...
So I made them into stems, then added some ribbons.  The rose ribbon I got in the states; the black and silver was from here.  Some rose spray and a blue motif and voila, a done block.  I hope she likes it.  I believe I have now done the majority of the blocks in this round robin.

Four of Nine

Behind on this like every other stitchalong.  I'm at least now done on the fourth part.  I have two other parts already given me and have started on the fifth.  It'll get done soon, but not before the end of the year, I think.
