Update on February

I've completed February's blocks except for washing off the pencil markings and sizing them. I decided to leave the circles out of the centers of the large blocks just because they proved so difficult for me. All of my applique is done with pinks and reds and the embroidery with red thread.

They look lovely. I had a few issues with the circles too. I learn't I needed to do the circle before the hearts. They are still wonky but I don't mind.
