Here are some of the blocks that I made near the end of last year for the Common Threads Quilt Bee
for Carissa:
for Amber:
for Nadia:
I have really loved seeing all the different takes by everyone as each month and each quilt progresses!
Wow, the one for Nadia is my favorite! It's gorgeous with the embroidery.
I really want to try embroidery. Can you recommend a beginner's book or something?

This is beautiful! Lovely work. The embroidery is so simplistic, but yet...there.
