Nice block and I like the blue stars ✨.
Oh the blocks do look great on the display board....
Looks fantastic ❤️
Looking lovely - it's fun to be able to put them up and see how the colours are going.
Stunning, Fiona!!! VEry exciting seeing a gathering of blocks - I must get mine to that stage!! (Just got a few more squares to cut for my first blocks)
I love the way this is coming together.
I like seeing them together like that. It really shows how well your color choices go together!
Wow! It looks amazing all together, I really do like the blue.
lovely!! I have my embroidery drawn on but having begun...I know it won't long to do that then a day or two on the applique if I would just begin...I plan to get my applique ready for next month and do the blanket stitch on my upcoming Fall vacation...need hand work when away from home.
