Hi everyone, I'm new to the Guild so I'm only now getting round to posting my May Bee Block and June Challenge Block photos.
This is my June Challenge 'Opposites' Block made using Dear Stella Paisley Doodle in Grey and Dear Stella Solids Blue.
And here's my May Bee block for E, called 'Children of Israel'.
After creating this block I appliqued and free machine sewed the basket in the bulrushes to represent the story of Moses.
Looking forward to finally meeting you all in October :)
Love your Bee block, Chrissie, especially the appliquéd Moses basket. Perfect! Look forward to meeting you in October.
ReplyDeleteThank you, it's great to get the feedback as I'm new to the Guild and it was my first Bee block and I wasn't quite sure what was expected but E's instructions were brilliant and allowed me to be a bit creative too :)
DeleteThe basket and rushes are amazing in the block! Love the detail. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Nicole, it was such fun to do - hadn't done applique or free machining on a block before (though I had done it on other textile art pieces) so it opened me up to more new possibilities in quilting, which is always a good thing :)
DeleteYea and I must say it is even more amazing in person. These blocks are great.
