    Here are the blocks I did today. Some need just a few stitches, some a lot.

    wooooohoooooo ... nine!

    My favourites today are the first and last .... because of the spiral/spinning effect the quilting gives. Yes, I like away from the traditional and ordinary!!

    Anael, I just came across this. All your blocks are so beautiful. and your hand quilting is just wonderful. I wish I could do hand quilting that nice, but my hands are feeling too old. Love your quilt!

    Same reason?? .........
    The basket block caught my eye too, because of the heavy quilting on the sides.
    You rushed your pics ..... the fade away has not faded away yet!
    But it was a plus, as we were able to see the quilting that sometimes does not show in the pics!

    It's not a fade away, it's water soluble so I have to soak it but I won't yet. And yes, same reason!!
