FNSI - January

The year is now in full swing and I signed up  to join the other stitcher's in blogland for..
Lovely Wendy from Sugarlane Quilts was our hostess. I have been working on some secret stitching stuff so I can't show you that. So I decided to work on my "1700's type" quilt blocks. I want two straight pieces with simple applique for down each side of the main medallion piece. So I set out preparing those.
I decided on tulip flowers each end as I want them in the centre piece. I managed to get them appliqued on and the middle bloom cut out.
A bit more quiet stitching today will hopefully see them finished. I finished off the night with a little applique on a baby Dresden block.
Earlier in the day I finished off my name badge for the Let's Get Stitched meeting in Brisbane....hope I got it right and my partner likes it.
 I hope your long weekend in Oz is a great one.
Namaste and Blessings,
Michelle xxx

    Love your needleturn applique this is one stitch I still haven't been able to master but admire those that do! Your chubby Dresden is adorable and I'm sure the recipient of your badge making efforts will love the end result just as much as I do :) Barb.
