NO PLACE LIKE HOME is done.


I am so happy to show to you my block C.
That stitchery was a big job but I had plenty of time to do it.
Instead of having a busy month May we went to Spain for a 3 weeks holiday (it is summer in Europe).
I sat in the shadow of a palmtree doing all these lines.
Line up and line down. I am glad my fabrics have a lot of flowers.
The stitchery on this block C was really a test of my patience but now I am ready for the next block and hopefully Fiona is right saying 'quick and easy'.
Happy stitching
