Fantastic, Michelle. I would have never thought of that, but it works beautifully. I can't wait to see more of your ingenious work.

Topaz, your interpretation of this block is wonderful, I love your color choices. I really enjoyed looking at the detail in your block, very effective - I look forward to your next post. Great Job!!

How interesting & what an ingenious way to solve a problem. I think it looks great! I wonder where I can squeeze in some ribbons - huuuummmmmmmmmmmmm.

michelle, love the colors...looks like a champagne? to me.
I guess it depends on what you call champagne.
You are so clever to figure out different ways to get 'er done!
applause from the paws ;-)

Wow! Thanks so much for all your comments. The ribbon colour is old gold. I used gold thread to do the couching X's. The thread I used for the lilies is variegated deep pink, green and gold. This photo does not really do this block full justice so I am glad that you all like my effort. Topaz-Spain

I was dreading this block from the time I got the book, well, I cheated and turned it into my fastest block to date, woo hoo! I missed a couple of points and I think I need to embroider around the center..but not too bad of an effort here.

Beautiful Block,i love the colours you chose and I agree the center block needs a little help - your bobbin work/embroidery work is terrific, you are really getting the hang of it. I didn't like it at first either, but funny how it changes your mind when you are working on these blocks. Thanks for sharing.

I always forget to log out, so it appears I'm here all the time - hope your doing well.
