My block for this week is strawberries. This has been a fabulous year for them, some of the best I have ever tasted. I go to an Amish farm that sells them for $3.00 a quart. Most grocery stores sell them for about twice that amount. Last week they were buy 2 get one free!
Here is a detail of the leaf which turned out kind of realistic. I just looked at a strawberry leaf and drew the lines the way they are in real life.
The flower started to blend into the background so I outlined it with my pigma pen. It works.
Today I have bee at my house, I am going to serve strawberries for dessert!

Gorgeous! Love your details in the block.
My Older Grandson loves strawberries; last season he loved picking them too - even ate the green ones! Oooo!
They look good enough to eat... The leaves especially are fantastic!
Simply perfect - love it!!! The little flower just makes it!
great block! I agree they have delicious! when having them on a salad with goat cheese, chicken and almonds - yum!
The leaf turned out really great and I love that you included a blossom!
Kelly, I think this diary quilt is one of the best you've done. I like strawberries too and think you made a beautiful rendering of some that look quite edible! Loved seeing the picture of your daughter and her friends too. It's wonderful that they've had these lifelong friendships. I don't think that happens very often.
These strawberries look really nice!

The leaves look as though the sun is shining on them, and the strawberries look good enough to eat! It's wonderful to hear how you go to an Amish farm.
Did I hear dessert???
The block is adorable.
Great block. Those berries look good enought to eat.
What a beautiful block! You really did capture the look of a strawberry.
I'm in love with that block.
