Sprigs blocks...well, half of them
I love having discovered and doing hand applique. But falling in love with one of Kim's bigger patterns means it is taking me a long while. So here is what I've done so far even though it is just half the applique blocks and not a pieced top yet, just to prove that I really am working on it! I've used both Kaffe's fabrics and batiks. I love fall colors so that's my focus. Hope I will be a little faster doing the rest of the quilt, but it was nice just seeing the blocks up on the design wall. (The last two blocks here are still in process.)
Half of them is great progress! I'm hoping to make this someday, and it's fun to see it done in your fall color scheme. Thanks for showing us!
