What's blooming now

Hello Everyone!  This is my last day in the house, the sewing machine is packed, the suitcases are by the door and it's time to say goodbye to my garden....


Hollyhocks in bloom - what a lovely shade of pink.

Pincushion flower

White clips - campanula

Hosta and wave petunias.
Enjoy!

Country style New York Beauty


Hello Everyone!  I took some time out yesterday to begin a new project.  I recently purchased some lovely fabric from Brannock and Patek called Farmer's Market and thought I'd make a country version of New York Beauty blocks...which I absolutely love!



Here are the three sections of my first block.  I've yet to put them together...not sure if I'm up to trying to sew the curves right now...I'm supposed to be packing after all! :-)

Enjoy!
