    I'm using a real mix of scraps of small print cottons and also some batiks. And I ordered a little stack of the Connecting Threads Batiks to try them. I've been really hesitant to order them as I ordered some of their fabric before and didn't really care for it...so we'll see. It should be here any day..along with that pack of "perfect circle" tools!

    Lovely - the embroidery is the finishing touch.

    These blocks really do need embroidery, it just makes them that little bit different

    Another really pretty one, Elle. I agree, the embroidery just finishes these blocks up perfectly. There are some that I think are a little skimpy on the embroidery. May have to take a page from Lesley's book and do some extra stitching.

    Did think that too, especially when you get all the blocks together, some look a bit bare.
    i think when once they get FMQ or hand quilted they will look different again
