My first Strawberry block is all quilted....
I echoed around the berry and then
did diagonal corners.
Lots of texture...:)))
The red berry I quilted in dark red
and
the top little cap
in a lighter green....
Next will be the upper and lower borders
leading to the other two
berries...
**********************
AND
Dark Days' first two blocks
are all sewn together
and quilted with various
simple stitches:
running stitch, whipped
running stitch, little crosses,
whip stitching and some
blanket stitches...
{this looks so different from anything I've ever made...}
around the pomegranates
are finished....
Here is what the back looks like:
[that long white strip]
The backing on the top log cabins
was trimmed back evenly and
I turned the extra fabric from
block one [which was quite wide]
and folded the raw edge in
and then did a simple
whip stitch to hold it in place
as K3N recommended...
I may add more stitching later on--
but for now I am resting until
next Wednesday when the
next block info is aired.
