Promised Pictures of my March blocks

Here we go...can you spot the not?  Well I call the 'nots' a design feature, or my 'Amish' blocks. I guess when I played my stars I was a little too fuzzy eyed and placed them a wonky! LOL  Or was it the wine?  Ha...oh well I kind of like them, life has been a little wonky lately too so it's all good.
Nature's Journey
So I have been using Lynette Anderson's appliqué paper and her tools.  I love them!  They are my new best friends.  I wish my pictures would be a little more true to colour, they seem a little dark. 
Happy Stitching ladies.  And Happy Easter!  He has risen...He has risen indeed!
