Rouenneries Blocks

I've been busy making the last 5 blocks for Friends in Stitching's (online stitching group) Block of the Month. The Rouenneries fabric is so lovely to work with ... it feels as beautiful as it looks.

 

No Name Block






 Down on the Farm with Kezza 
(an original block designed by Kerry Swain.)


Now I need to decide how to put them all together. Was thinking red sashing but not totally convinced on that option. Will have to have a little play.

Thanks to everyone who commented on my last post. There's still plenty of time to enter the giveaway if you haven't done so already.  A few people have guessed correctly and lots of others are very close.

Yesterday I had a fun sewing day with Vicki and Sarah .. will show you what we made very soon.

    Gorgeous blocks, Christine! I especially like the fussy cutting on the no name block and on Virginia. Just lovely.

    Happy stitching,

    Beautiful blocks! They inspired me to make some blocks out of all my leftover Rouriennes fabric from my "Le Jardin" quilt! I might just have to stop cleaning the house and start sewing now....
