A daisy in the grass
I heart it! I will surely sew a daisy-baby quilt, beacuse this is the most beautiful block I never sewed! :)
I have tried to leave comments on blogger before and don't understand why my comments will not appear. Is it because I am on typepad? After reading some of chookyblue's tutorials I thought I'd try signing in as anonymous. Any help would be appreciated... I am wanting to join the SKOFW Stitch A Long. Do you just order the book, do the blocks in order and then post? My blog is berryredstitches.typepad.com
I have finally figured out the problem with sign ins. I was trying to sign in with open id not just by name.....der! Anyway, I am wondering if there is any room left on SKOW as I would love to join.
@Liane Ask to Chookyblue for a room... and yes, you can order your book on-line. Then we are making the blocks with the order That was posted by Chooky; on the side bar on the left you can find it. Little variations are allowed, and you can run a little bit if you want, but I think the sense of the stitching along is to respect the order, perhaps, I think... why post blocks in an order too different, otherwise? But ask it to Chooky, our leader! :)

Beautiful. It is a very pretty block, isn't it? I'm thinking it will be my next block. Cheers
It is a simple pretty block - I am not too sure its going to make it into my quilt though , , still thinking about it.
It is a lovely block. Enjoy
