Oh, how lucky was I - a block completed from each great quilt over the weekend! Yes, I did feed the family and yes, I did babysit two rowdy 5-year olds overnight Sat/Sun!

Above Block 1, from BOM by Sue Ross/Material Obsession. I have had a few enquiries and am waiting on a phone call from the girls to see whether there are any more vacancies for those who would like to join in!
My Civil War Bride Quilt - Block 1! I feel I have stepped back in time and am so enjoying doing serious applique. This IS my thing - maybe a fairly serious accident and the big move from Brisbane had interrupted my applique journey - never mind, the main thing is I am doing what I love now, and will have to decide which block to start next.♥
Hope you had a lovely weekend, too!
PS - I have just heard from Kathy at Material Obsession. If you are keen to join in the BOM please email her at materialobsession@ozemail.com.au
Beautiful blocks. I am not a hand applique person but I do love them.
ReplyDeleteStunning Lurline...both of them! How did you find the time to do these in your extra busy weekend, you are amazing! I have almost finished my practise BOM block, but haven't touched civil war yet..hopefully soon. I'm loving the inspiration I'm getting from you though! xo
ReplyDeleteBoth of these blocks are fantastic. I particularly like the applique. Love the blue in the flowers.
ReplyDeleteThey are just lovely Lurline.
ReplyDeleteI love your blocks Lurline. Everytime i see the Civil War Bride i think i should getthe pattern but am resisting so far. :). I had a busy weekend working on my sewing room but still have lots to do. Jeanette
ReplyDeleteWell done Lurline.You have achieved a lot this weekend. I am also doing MO BOM and have my whirlygigs going the wrong way .lol. I should have read the posts earlier. Doesn't matter. I hope to get to the triangles today. I love your blog.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful job on both blocks.
ReplyDeleteEven if they don't have room to let people in for the BOM, I would like the pattern and how to get the templates. I notice they don't give any info at all. Any leads?
