A Stroll in the Garden

Sew Let’s Quilt Along Segment 1 Wrap Up

I have finished Block 5 of Segment 1 of the Sew Let’s Quilt Along QAL.

As with the other blocks, the instructions are well written and easy to follow.

I have not embellished my quilt shop block because I am undecided as to what I would like to do, and how I want to do it.  To embroider, or to use a fabric pen?  Where to put a kitty…maybe peeking from behind a potted plant?  Hmmmmmmm.

To wrap up Segment 1, participants are asked to show a photo of our five blocks together.

I like seeing them together…this has been a fun project for me, and I appreciate the designers making it so!  They are doing a wonderful job!

Sew Let’s Quilt Along

Since I went on vacation, I got a bit behind in the Partners in Design Quilt Along.

Block four is a super cute block featuring spools of thread.  Actually, there are two versions, and I chose the Spinning Spools version to make.

The directions were very good, and I had no problems in the making of this block!
