More Buildings and Flowers

Three quarters of the flowers on part four are done and I'm working on the fourth quarter.  I also got some more building work done.  The first part of part five is coming along nicely.

Mystery Done

I finished my Debbie Draper Quaker Mystery Sampler.  Now to make it into something.  I believe I'm going to do another journal cover.

Still on the Bottom

I am almost done with the first half of the bottom strip.  So close to being completely finished!

Other Gift Biscornu Part

Here's the other biscornu I made for the gift quilt.  It's an adaptation of a needlepoint design called "Captured Hearts".  I think it came out pretty well.

A New Round Robin - Asian Again

Crazy Quilting International has started a bunch of round robins again, and I've joined in.  The first I've worked on is Asian themed, and this is Darlene's blue and white block.  Since I was the first to work on it, here it is completely naked.

And here it is after my work.  I added a huge flower, a pagoda, a bonsai, and a couple of beaded motifs I made myself.  I also did several seams. 

Belated Posting

I made this a few months ago as part of a quilt for someone sick.  The idea was for several of us to come together and stitch biscornu fronts and backs for someone to put together into a quilt.  These two squares are one of my two biscornu for the project.  They were done with a French perle cotton on linen.  The recipient just got her quilt on Friday!

Exchange Temari

I sent this temari off to Jean in Canada for the Tanabata GITS.  She's gotten it, so I can post it now.  It represents the bamboo and river that's crossed in the legend.  Anyway... it's got a mix of geometric stuff and free embroidery.
