It’s time for another my weekly report on the state of my WISPs (Works in Slow Progress) as part of Sandie’s UFO and WISP challenge.
This time I have completed a block from start to finish with both embroidery and beading done. As you can see it is another light tone block.
Once again it is a block for the diamond block quilt I am working on. It is inspired – or the shape of the blocks were inspired by a quilt made by Martha Bingley in 1883.
Above is a detail of the floral spray section on the block
A detail of one of the seam embellishments …
Another seam embellishment which is alternating barred chain worked in fine knitting wool then decorated with flower shaped beads.
That’s it for this week. I would have liked to get more done but I have also been working on samples for the next class I will offer at joggles.
Yum, Sharon!
Neat how you changed the value of the center of the block with all the pretty flowers…
I am a big fan of your work, so I am really happy when you let us see details of your blocks!
That’s another beautiful diamond. I particularly like this flower spray, as well as the flower-sequin seam. Thanks for sharing your own work with us, still.
