Here is my latest FW block
Postage Stamp block
Also my quilt for baby Elsie is ready for a reveal
It's a mixture of applique and machine embroidery with some free motion quilting
I'm also really happy with the cotton check that I found for the back in my local fabric shop Carolyns.
I'm really enjoying doing some free motion quilting, I've booked myself onto a beginners course to try to improve, really looking forward to it, it's an area I would really like to improve and become good at!
I'm using the left overs of the backing fabric to make a birthday pressie for a lovely 4 year old that is having a birthday party on Friday.
I'm going to make a wide waist sash out of broidery anglaise and I'm going to do some hand embroidery on the bib.
My fabric has finally arrived for the We Can Do It Skill Builder Quilt, so far i've done the cutting for the first block which is a log cabin. I'm hoping to whip it up tomorrow morning, but sorry no pics yet.

Love your applique on the quilt, very pretty.
Your FMQ is great! I love your embroidery too :)
The quilting on the check looks great, so much fun!
Aww Elsie's quilt is adorable!
That's a nice quilt. And I like your FW block, I have not tried that one yet, all those one inch squares.
