Appliqué block for March update

Yesterday was a very nice day.  I had some friends over for a sew day!  Always a lot of inspiration with show and share, chatting and laughing.  I get so distracted that I usually don't get much done...lol.  But I am ok with that.  It's just nice having people over sharing the day and our passion for quilting.

While the ladies were here, I got three more leaves done.  During the week leading up to Saturday, I managed to get all the leaves on the left hand side, plus the two berries.   By this point it is starting to take shape.


Then, after the ladies left, I was going to pull out my wool appliqué that I picked up at the 2025 Quilt Canada show called Thimble Blossoms.  I've been dreaming of getting that one moving along.  But I stopped myself and rationalized that this required block for March is due in just three days.....  

So, I push through the urge to start working on something else and continued to do this Gathering Flowers appliqué block.  I am glad I did!!  It feels good to get blocks done.


I added this block to my pile of completed blocks and ticked off the box to say that this March block is done......whoohoo!  I even pulled out the next block that I am going to work on.  More about that one in another post.

While I was reviewing the blocks that I have left to do for this quilt, I noticed I have more of it done then I thought, which is always nice.  According to the list, I have only eight more blocks out of twenty to do.

Take care everyone.
