I'm back!!!

Hi Ladies,


It's been a while, but I've been doing a lot of things.
I wanted to wait to show what I did in a few weeks.
I finished the first row, but I still have to do the 
stitchery of the suitcase.
The second row, I have to appliquer the 2 last blocks
and all the stitchery. I prepared all the blocks so
when I have the time, I just have to take it and so
I can appliquer and do the stitchery.
I took some pictures to show you.










The colors aren't great, but in real they are lovely.


                         Love and hugs,
                             Martine

It's a hard quilt to photograph. I'm sure they are gorgeous close up & they look great here too. Tracee xx

I agree, the long panels are hard to capture in one photo.
You're doing a great job.
