Set of thee samplers. The stitcheries are all motifs/flowers/letters that feature in the quilt. I absolutely loved doing these.
In My Garden – Block Four
In My Garden – Block Three
In My Garden – Block Three – 16 inches
The earth laughs in flowers
and cushion – 18 inches
Block Three has agapanthus stitched using back stitch and french knots. The companion cushion pattern has a mixed flower garden. Both the block and cushion have flaps, ricrac and suffolk puffs as embellishments. They also both have some flying geese, applique hearts and a pieced spinning block. These motifs are repeated ineach of the blocks.

In My Garden – Block One
My new quilt is all drawn up and ready to make. It is a series of stitcheries with simple stitches and sayings, mostly with a garden theme. I have set myself the task of doing one a week, though this may be a little ambitious – I am determined to get it finished before we move south at the end of May!!! including the quilting GULP!!!
Each block will make up part of the quilt and also will have a project attached.
For my sample I am using Moda Martinique, and am using 40 fat quarters and a jelly roll. Background of the stitchery is cream cotton homespun. I have also used thin pellon behind the stitchery blocks.
BLOCK ONE: (16 inch square)
and as a cushion: (18 x 12 inches)
Keep watching this space for the next block.
Hugs, Raewyn
