Be Mine Block...

Brynwood Needleworks - Be Mine
 
No matter what's on my plate, I always find myself returning to needlework.
 
Brynwood Needleworks - Be Mine

This is my next installment in the Kathy Schmitz "Sweet Stitches" monthly mini quilt series that I started last year. My plan with these is to stitch out each design, finish the fronts as blocks, rather than a free-standing mini quilts.

When all twelve are complete, I'll find a common sashing fabric, and then combine them into a full quilt top. It will be a true "quilt for all seasons".

Seven of my blocks are already stitched out, making this one Number Eight. That leaves four to finish. I can see fun stitching times ahead to finish this project. 

Today is Set-up day for our Disconnected Piecers Quilt Guild 2016 Quilt Show. I'll be in Punta Gorda helping hang quilts, or anything else that's needed. Show opens tomorrow, and we'll be ready. 
If you're local - or in southwest Florida - I hope you'll consider spending part or all of Friday and Saturday at our show. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

If you're not local, I'll be taking lots of photos to share with you in the next few days. I'll also share news about ribbon winners, too! I hope you'll check back to see what I see.

  1. I never thought to put my stitchery on my scroll bars - I have them, but never use them - this is my 2x4 moment, as my friend calls it.

  2. Your hands never sit idle and it is such a blessing as they and you produce such beautiful pieces of HeArt. I shall be hoping to see a blue ribbon for your Pineapple quilt dear. Enjoy the show setup and safe travels...
