I am going to get my blog posts caught up! I will! I will! I will! With that being said, here is a picture of my April 2012 CQJP.
The white flowers at the bottom right were crocheted with #3 cotton. The birdcage motif was really fun to embroider. I found the image on Pinterest which is a very addictive site. If you would like to see some of the images I have acquired, you will find a link in the right side bar.
This block also looks a little bare. It will benefit by adding some of the crocheted butterflies. The butterflies are not ready to show yet, but I can tease you by saying that they are crocheted with variegated size 20 thread.
Looking at the block, I think that I need to make my stitches bigger. Especially since I am using DMC 5 thread.
Also, I see some patterns that are emerging. I seem to want white in the blue outside corners. This project is to make 2 pillow shams using 6 blocks each. There is a least one piece of white lace in each block and I have one embroidered motif in each block. I have them hanging on my project wall and they do seem to belong together. I am looking forward to see how they finish up.
