| Brynwood Needleworks - Everlasting - BW Compass Barn Substitution |
I completed another block for my version of the Primitive Gatherings "Everlasting" quilt project. I designed my own substitution for this block, recreating our Compass Barn and dogs in wool and thread.

| Brynwood Needleworks - Pattern & Substitution - Side by Side |
You can see from the pattern on the left, and my block on the right how I completely changed out the design. Bella is sporting her stylish red collar, while Carly is wearing her very girly pink one. Of course, my little, lowrider rebel is only dressed in his own white, fur collar. I even added a little bluebird in one of the openings on the barn.
So, this block is finished, and I nearly completed a second one yesterday. I'll wait to show you that one - along with any others I finish over the weekend - on Monday.

| Brynwood Needleworks - Brynwood "Fobulous" Key Fobs |
I also finished my little gifts yesterday. Handsome asked what they were, and when I told him they were Brynwood key fobs, he said, "They're fobulous!" Followed quickly by "That's what you should call them!" So effective yesterday, these are now my Brynwood Fobulous Key Fobs. I hope the recipients will love them.
Happy May Day!!!
Love your personal touch of the barn substitution and your fobs are perfect!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Bonnie!

I love your substitution block! It's so much more fun to personalize a project in this way. And your Fobulous key fobs are adorable - who wouldn't love to have one of those!!
ReplyDeleteHi Maggie:
DeleteI agree. That way, mine will never be exactly like anyone else's. Email your address and I'll send one your way! ;-)

Thank you Donna, but remember - I'm in Canada so postage is ridiculous. The thought is lovely though!
DeleteYou're right. It's just not fair! Sending big hugs your way.

I love the block! You have quite the talent to be able to recreate the likeness of the dogs.
ReplyDeleteDear Andrea:
DeleteThank you for your kind comment. Glad you like my block. (I'm doing one of the farmhouse in this project, too.)
Hope you have a restful weekend.

I think your personal block is so cute! It will make the finished project very special. I also love the bird block you made in your previous post.
