| Quiltmania/Colmar, quilt block 1 nearly finished |
I have been working on the first quilt block via Quiltmania's youtube videos (colmar mystery quilt),
and have been learning and practicing appliqué, trapunto, embroidery embellishment and more..
 |
| some flower bud embellishment |
and it all begun ( as projects do) very humbly, as I pieced together fabrics...determined to use fabric which I already had on hand....
not knowing how it would look - or whether I had chosen properly...
but by just starting, and stepping out, and learning, this has become
this :) life is like that, no? :)
Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
philippians 3:12-14
It is beautiful and you've done a wonderful job. I just got my copy of Quiltmania and seeing your block is making me think I should make this quilt too!
ReplyDeleteYour star is wonderful, flowers and embroideries are so well done.
ReplyDeleteThe difference in the two last pictures is dramatic! What a lot of work you have put into this block, and wow, what a result. I just LOVE embroidery stitching on quilts!
ReplyDeletewonderful work. Indeed.
ReplyDeleteYour block is beautiful! I've never made a mystery quilt before because I have such a hard time deciding what fabrics to use. You've convinced me that I should make this one - using fabrics I love and hoping it all turns out for the best. Can't wait to see how your quilt turns out!
