Sneaking in Some Applique

I have been super busy getting ready for Needlework Expo. I designed a small to give away to shops as a freebie, but then I liked it so much I decided to release it as a pattern! So I am quickly stitching away on it to get it done in time. I will have to come up with a new freebie now! LOL!

I worked a little bit on my Hospital Sketches Quilt which was a free BOM with Barbara Brackman on her Civil War Quilts blog.

 It was released in 2020, but you can still get all of the blocks for free.

 I am going to make it for Chelsea, my oldest. I bought a couple of fat quarter bundles when I was at Hancocks of Paducah. One was Pam Buda and the other was Jo Morton. Can't go wrong with either of those! Here is the first block:

I just can't seem to get enough of hand applique lately. I keep seeing so many quilts that I want to make. This all started with the #BBDQAL (Blackbird Designs Quilt Along)started by Lori (Textilust) and Olivia(Olivia). But I have moved beyond that now and am so inspired by Reproduction fabrics and Civil War era quilts(my first love)!

Hope you get a chance to do some stitching, sewing or crafting today!

Happy Stitching!

XOXO
