June blocks nearly there.

Just wanted to update where I am with my June blocks as I am running a bit late with them. Hopefully they will be finished by the end of the weekend.


All the appliqué blocks are finished with the last two pieced blocks well on there way. Some hiccups this week with my sons recovery after arm surgery so  have been a little preoccupied with running him to and from doctors appointments for more tests. Will post again when the final 2 blocks are complete. Loving my French General fabrics. Thanks Chooky and Susan for all your work.
Hugs.......

Don't you just love those little lady bugs? I do! And your cone flower looks amazing. Actually all of your blocks look amazing! The patchwork block is looking great so far.
