They are Growing

Good morning everyone. I hope that your week is unfolding nicely for you. For my self I have been throughly enjoying my little Victorian flavoured blocks. I am also pleased that so far I have only used my stash!!!! I will have to buy some more creams for the backgrounds but I think that is pretty good.
I now have 3 more appliqued ones...
And 4 more hexie flavoured ones...
They are growing very nicely...
I couldn't help myself.  I have added a couple of baby Dresdens into the mix too. The first pair are cut out and basted and I have begun to stitch them together.
I am trying to get as much as possible done because I have been a bit naughty and should have been writing some instructions for these...
As well as finishing off some commissions that are 3/4 done.....I have been having such fun playing though.
Just enjoying that beautiful process we all go through as our needle and thread slips through the fabric we are stitching....bliss!

Namaste and Blessings,
Michelle xxx
