April blocks progress
This week I have been focussing on my April, Some Kind of Wonderful blocks. Here is the tree. Thanks, Anni, for the very tricky needleturned flowers!
I am now working on the stitching on the rainbow block.
These are such lovely blocks and it will be a delightful quilt.

Yes, and I thought the daisy was tricky. Not sure I'm looking forward to doing this one, but it will be fun to try.
was your tongue in your check when you said "thanks" to Anni?? You have done a great job!
Yours look great... the flowers in the tree certainly were tricky.... I think the first blocks were practice for this!!
