Block H and summertime.




I have now finished block H for my quilt and for Chookyblu's counter and it gives me a good feeling to be on schedule.

It is summer in Denmark and I can sit on my terrace and do a lot of stitching, and at the same time listen to the birds and enjoy my flowers. It is really relaxing.

That means that the next block is almost done also. Can't wait to put it together.
I could not help showing a photo from my garden.
Happy stitching to all of you.

It is summer here also, but very hot so not much sitting outside. I can enjoy the birds from inside through the window.
I like the dark background behind your wreath. It really makes it pop.

Your block and garden both look lovely. It is very chilly here in Australia at the moment.

How pretty is your garden, I'd sit and sew in mine too if it were a bit warmer, it was 5'C about 2pm here today so I'll keep stitching inside for a while yet... your block is lovely, I love your colours you are using, Sheryl
