LIFE IN OUR STRANGE TIMES
I long to go to a restaurant

Spring tree in summertime. This tree is April in the Calendar quilt. Cherry blossoms and new blooms.
Wonderful fence with some dropped blossoms and a wily fox.
Lovely french knot cherry blossoms made from 4mm silk ribbon.
And more branches, stems and blossoms.
Like all the blocks, this one is turned applique with silk ribbon embroidery along with perle cotton and 6 strand embroidery thread. All three make for a different look.

So far I have only completed 2 quilts but I will get more up as life in our strange times allows me.

This is so beautiful, so many french knots!! The fox adds some bling. Happy stitching!
ReplyDeleteThat's a sweet little fox. Your work is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAnother amazing block. I could not do that many french knots.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful block, a lot of French knots! Your Blossom tree is very pretty.
ReplyDeleteYour cherry blossoms are absolutely amazing, so life like. The block over all is cute but mostly I am impressed with the tree. Good job.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful block...love the fox.
Have a great day!
Hi Pam! Gosh, your block is beautiful. I used to do a lot of handwork because we owned a cross stitch shop. I love all of those French knots - they look just like the cherry blossom trees. That photo!! It is fabulous. WOW. Thanks so much for linking up this week. ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteIts a beautiful block Pam, so much to look at and I love the startled fox. xx
ReplyDeleteLove those cherry blossoms, and the fox is irresistible! I'm thinking your calendar quilt is going to be stunning.
ReplyDeleteYour spring cherry blossom tree is beautiful. Oh wow, those french knots in silk ribbon are amazing.....so, so many to do. Cute little wily fox, too.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous spring block! I've never successfully done a French knot, for some reason they just pull through.
ReplyDeleteI rarely eat in restaurants these days, so I'm not missing that. I would love to get my hair cut, though!
Your beautiful work never ceases to amaze me, Pam.
ReplyDeleteOur isolation has be extended til July and I too am missing some basic outings.
That is a lot of french knots and they are very beautiful all together to make the blossoms. Cute fox, too. Love the photo you found. Thanks for sharing at the Chameleon's Colour & Inspiration party.
