This week's diary quilt block is Snowdrops. They are one of the first flowers to bloom here in the spring. They are so pretty and dainty yet often bloom in the snow.
I had fun making this block and am happy with the way the green veins came out on the flowers. If you look at a real one they are there.
I have finally finished the quilt I can't show you and it is off to the machine quilter. As soon as I am allowed I will show you but I don't want to ruin Bob, the designer's surprise.
Last night at guild we had a really cool challenge. It was to recycle something and turn it into something. I did not get any pictures and I did not participate because of not feeling well. Pat and Rob did a great job organizing it and made beautiful ribbons for the winners.We also had a silent auction and I got all those old cool retro silk fabrics for a $1.00. I must find something to do with them!!!
