2 of the 6 rows sewn together so far. |
I have been down for the count for the past four days. Horrible chest cold. just Horrible. On the mend now. Feeling a lot better right now. I decided to try a little sewing to take my mind off things. I was inspired the other day by a blogging buddy (thanks Terry!) She was working on a project that consisted of embroidered blocks that needed to be finished up. It reminded me that I had 30 embroidered blocks that my Mother had stitched a few years ago and that I had put off sewing them into a top for long enough. These are 18" blocks and I am setting them 5 x 6 so it will be a nice large quilt. (approx 90" x 108") .
The pre-stamped quilting design has almost disappeared so I will be tracing a new one on as I handquilt it. Didn't care for the pre-stamped design anyway.

This is the fabric I will use for the binding. Very old but perfect! |
Mother loves to embroider, nothing complicated, nice and easy stitching. This is the fourth embroidered quilt that she and I have worked on together.
