Today I am sharing some blocks that I did on vacation in Florida. Yes, beach during the day, of course! But quiet time at night was taken up with hand applique of the following blocks.
Continuing on with my thoughts in Tuesday's post: These were like a meditation too. I had packed up my supplies, and prepared my blocks for freezer paper on the bottom applique before I went to Florida. Each evening, I would sit under the best light in the hotel room, my simple tools at hand - needle, thread, a few pins, scissors. Working with white or navy blue thread, do the smallest applique stitch I can manage. Take out basting stitches, remove freezer paper, and you are done.
Please see dearjane.com for more explanation of the 1863 quilt I am slowly reproducing in blue and white.
