April blocks are ready


Dear Girls,

How are you doing?
I have to admit it is only now that I found the true colour scheme I feel ok and "home".  I am much-much happier with the April blocks!:-) I chose these tones for March, too, and I will remake the February blocks as soon as possible:-)

My home is fifty shades of white, I was longing to put some white in my Natures Journey, too:-)

I had also put some lace onto the big dragonfly's upper wing, tiny eyes for the tiny bees and stuffed the petals of the big flowers to pop them out.  







I wish you beautiful Sunday afternoon!:-)
Big hugs,

Maja

I love the white it looks very classy and the lace is a nice touch also. Well done on getting finished early. I have just done one block of April so far.

Very nice choice...white. Good for to go with your heart. I think your quilt is going to look stunning. Happy Stitching!

see this is why I love having so many different girls in the group everyone does what they want and I would never ever have thought of white but it looks fantastic......

I think the white will really make it sing!
Chooky is so right - all the variations are fun to see.
