Work in Progress Wednesday Block 34 started

Crazy quilt block 34 startI have started block 34 in my next quilt. I am still working with a soft colour scheme. There is some very nice vintage lace on this block so I am thinking about how I will treat it. Hopefully next week I will be able to share the finished block with you.

If you have made progress on a large project leave a comment with a link to your site. If you include the http bit of your web address in the comment it will become a link and folks can visit and see what you have done.

The idea behind Work in Progress Wednesdays (WIP Wednesdays) is to encourage people to complete large and/or languishing projects. So if you are in the process of working a large project, share your progress via a blog or public photo site like flickr.

The theory is, that if you regularly report publicly on a project you are more likely to pick it up and work it a little. Even if it means the project is out and ‘looking at you’ for most stitchers it means they will work it a little.

Work in Progress Wednesday Block 33 started

Crazy quilt block in progressI have started block 33 for my crazy quilt. It is another of the softer colours on the quilt. They are quite muted but I am enjoying them. I have also managed to embroider a number of the seams and hopefully will be able to finish it later this week. There is no beading on it yet so I have quite a bit to go.

That is my report this week!

If you click on the block you will see a larger version of the photo.

All the lace on it is vintage lace I was given “towards my next quilt” and I wrote about it here.

I thought I would share a few of the details as I know people like the eye candy.

Crazy quilt block 32 detail 1

This vine is made of french knots worked in a stranded cotton floss.  The vintage lace trim was covered with beads.

Crazy quilt block 32 detail 2This is buttonholed herringbone and woven detached chain stitches which I was reminded of when I posted them as challenge stitches for TAST. (See the Take a stitch Tuesday challenge does me good too!)
