Once again - just amazed by the colours. These are all going to look so wonderful.
Beautiful Maree! Bliss is stunning isn't it! Your stitching looks perfect!
I absolutely love the colors of your fabrics! I can't wait to see more blocks and especially the finished top! Beautiful work!
Every time I see your fabrics I'm tempted to play with my little pile of Bliss...they are so delicious!
I love it!!! So pretty and I love that line of fabric.
I was thinking these would be pretty made up as a table runner...looking forward to seeing the finished project.

How neat! I don't think I would have put those together but I love it.
I love the idea of a table runner Maree. I can't wait to see it when it's finished :-)
Very cute fabrics!
