This is the final result for my August block! A very large learning curve on this one! As you can see, it doesn't look much like my original design idea! Interestingly, they seldom turn out the way I might have planned as I just start stitching. That butterfly is going to work on one of my blocks for sure. Next, September and October....
A reminder of how I started out.
Wishing all my fellow Canadians a Happy Thanksgiving. I will not be returning until later next week as I'll be feasting on turkey and perhaps a pumpkin pie!
What a beauty! Even if it did not turn out as you had planned...it had a mind of it's own and is beautiful!

Gorgeous!!!!! Each time you make a block they outdo the last - I love the colors, the dimension and the variety of techniques you bring everytime!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely stunning!
ReplyDeleteYour completed block is stunning. Blessings and Happy Canadian Thanksgiving...
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely creation. I am inspired to get out needles and threads. There just doesn't seem to be enough time to do everything, work, home caring, cooking and baking, gardening, needleworking.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Thanksgiving.

I think you have also solved the "branch problem".
ReplyDeleteA huge fantastic flower spray. I have a question though. Why did you remove the whole button cluster?
Was it too heavy? I feel that the branch with lovely leaves is too light. Sorry for being critical.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Gorgeous work! You inspire me to pick up a needle and stitch!

Hi Lorraine this CQ square now finished is so very beautiful - you have spent so many hours on this I can see! I love that bunch of cascading roses and flowers in the prettiest of colours in the corner.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous work and I admire you for your persistence.
Have a great week,
Hugs dear friend,

Such a beautiful block! It doesn't matter what the original plan was - it was obviously a great jumping off point for your creativity!
