Block Four....

....is completed!
Ahh I'm in applique heaven with this quilt, I have just drawn out the tree onto freezer paper (yes, my next block will be the animal block at the bottom of the quilt), and check out all the glorious curves to be stitched!!!
It is so wonderful watching Kim's glorious patterns turning into very different quilts with the various and beautiful colour choices on display here on the GA blog. Thanks for the inspiration and eye candy everyone!

  10. Thank you everyone, I really appreciate your lovely comments.
    Liz, the background is Kaffe Fassetts Roman Glass in the Pastel colourway. I am actually using the back of the fabric to tone it down a little. You can see it at Liza's shop here: http://www.gloriouscolor.com/store.php?cat=99

  13. I am really loving your background fabric, Cathy. It is an inspired choice. I'm trying to work up the courage to take on that curvy bottom panel soon myself; you have an admirable "can do" attitude about it! But the reward for getting all those curves stitched down will be making all those lovely animals. I can hardly wait!

  14. Your blocks look great and I really like the background fabric. I think the 'trees' look a little intimadating for most people. I'm sure it will take awhile to hand sew. Keep up the good work.

  17. Cathy, as usual, your blocks are looking extremely yummy. I'm glad you're going to enjoy doing the coral tree, I did. I like this type of tree, which is why it appears in my quilts.
    Look forward to seeing your panel Cathy! Kim McL
