Let's have Show and Tell

Yesterday my applique bee met and you know what that means. Show and Tell.
This quilt was made by Patti. She took this design from a painting book and made it into an applique design. Pretty neat idea.
This quilt was made by Ellen F. I love the combination of yellow and purple.
These two pictures are blocks made by Lynn. The one below is a close up of the block on the far left. I just had to show you the little roses.
The lovely tea sets were done by Alice.
And these house blocks were done by Jane.

With Passion,
Carrie P.
