Another Block Finished!

My third block of The Civil war Bride Quilt - finished last night! After a lovely day out at our state guild sewing day, it was so lovely to have time to finish this block.

I am enjoying the appliqueing so much and have another block started!

Hmmm, hmmm - not to be beaten, I am going to have another attempt at perfecting the Radiating Star Block - let's hope for peace and quiet here today - no phones ringing or knocks on the door!

See the new button on my Sidebar - Among the Gum Trees - a wonderful venture, and to all you girls, I wish you all the very best! Click on the button to see who is involved - I am really looking forward to lots of fun from this bunch, they will bring sunshine to Blogland!

Happy day!

    This is another fabulous block Lurline, I'm so enjoying watching the progress. Beautiful colours and perfect applique! I have to ask if the green with the lighter checked lines is one of your older fabrics?
    I'm about to do that star too, wish me luck.
