In the Nick of Time.....
Yeh !!! Put the last few stitches into my February Block this evening......
Now to work out sashings as I don't have enough of the Mistletoe fabrics to make all the blocks ????
Good for you....the only thing I've done on this block is cut out the background and the patterns for the applique pieces...hoping to do more today...can't decide if I want to do as much embroidery as I can first or not. Yours is lovely. Mama Bear
I'm just starting my block this weekend. For some reason, yours looks more doable than the drawing - and I know it's the same. LOL Great job! I hope you can find things you like to finish the block.

Hello !!
It's beautiful Maria - I really like the darker fence posts,I didn't think of that for mine!
Lovely - and yes I like the fence posts too - clever idea with the pale background....good luck with your sashings - you will work it out.
