Block A
I was able to get block A done early this month. I had to take it apart several times due to wonky-ness. Is that a word? LOL! It was WONKY as could be. I still think my shed looks like it is leaning. I think I even put the ladybug on wrong.
Very delicate,I say,looks very nice,lovely fabric range. Love the word wonky-ness,I am sure it must be "my" word,upside down-inside out is me in a nutshel! Must work hard now to make block A. Happy Stitching to you :-)
Great! I love it and everyone elses work too. Anni would be thrilled to see this blog. I have recently started A Gardener's Journey as a long term hab=nd project for doing at work on nightshift. How can I get on your list of stitchers?
Those pastel fabrics really make the stitchery stand out. I had a lot of trouble today with my G block being Wonky. Lots of squaring, taking out stitching and redoing I had that part of any sewing project. I liked seeing the A block finished. Lets me get an idea of what is coming up for me. In Stitches, Mama Bear
