March has not brought things calming down very much. The calendar has more filled in days than not. My guild's April 9th and 10th quilt show has all of us scrabbling to get things done. But I did manage to get my Flower Garden Down Under February instructions completed and had a bit of down time to work on my Dots project.
The appliqué work is all finished and the cross and square in a square border is sewn on. Now just the second border to get on.Now I just have to add those dot wedged pieces on to the border. They are a bit fussy, but I am happy with the results. Those border pieces are cut to finish at 6 by 9 inches. I am toying with once on. and after taking a good look at the finish top, cutting them down to 6 inches instead of the 9. Just have to see what it looks like in the end.
March's instructions for the Garden Party Down Under are so much easier this month. Just this one pieced block and one 12 by 14 inch vase with flowers block. I was able to finish this block in just a couple days. A bit fussy I will admit, but it when together perfectly.
This is the newest free pattern up for March on Suzy's Sitcom. I have not had time to even start last month's pattern let alone this one, but it certainly is cute. The site has all kinds of appliqué patterns with all sorts of themes, many of them free in monthly downloads.
Productive week for you! Love the little flower in the center of the block.
