Remember those purple half square triangles I showed in the last post? This is what they were for. I wasn't going to join this Stitch Along from Primitive Gatherings but I had to have something to applique at my applique bee. Sure I could have dug out a UFO but that would not be fun. ;0)
The flowers and leaves are done in wool. I even found some purple wool thread in my collection of threads.
Lisa is having a 10 year anniversary stitch along. It is a mystery. I wasn't going to join in because I wasn't sure if I could keep up but there is no set date that she shares the next set of directions. The center block came out in May and the two borders came out this month. So if you want to join in you will not have any trouble catching up.
Want to see some show and tell? Not a whole lot of applique but I think you will enjoy the photos anyway.Susan completed another one of her wool blocks from Primitive Gatherings.
I have shared some of these blocks Charlotte has been working on for a few months. She now has a finished top to hang in her sewing room.
Patti was our guild member last year. The guild made these autograph blocks for her.
One of the other quilting bees embroidered theses blocks to add to the center of the quilt. Aren't they cute?
Patti has been very busy with some fabulous finishes.
Carolyn was adding the binding to this very pretty quilt. I love the color combination.
With Passion,
Carrie P.

love your sal block, the colours look fantastic. beautiful show and tell from your crafty group. Charlotte's quilt looks gorgeous!
Well now I might have to do the Stitch-a-long too! Very pretty.
Oh i LOVE the primitive gatherings blocks!
Your block is so pretty. Sometimes you just need to start something new. Your applique bee grow is so inspiring. Lovely work.
"I wasn't going to join, but..." How often do we say those words. I love the sewing theme quilt. very clever! And of course your applique block is beautiful.
Lovely works Carrie!!
I love purple - your block is sooooo beautiful!

The pictures of the wool makes me wonder if this is regular wool fabric or is it wool yard which is felted? Also, why the wool, is that for textural differences?
Great photos!
I see why you wanted to join in - what a beautiful block! I never tire of seeing what your applique addicts do - such pretty and precise work!
Cheers!
Thanks for the sew and share show! You have a very productive sewing group!
I really love your PG block! Great color choices. I had not thought about using different colors, I will now. (I have been printing the patterns for later.)Thank you for sharing your sewing groups projects! The signature quilt reminds me of one my grandmother made. That was really nice of the guild to make for her. I am definitely going to have to try a scalloped border sometime, Patti's is so pretty.
Your appliqué is just beautiful and thanks for sharing the show and tell ,lots of beautiful work :-)
They all look so fantastic !! Thanks for sharing!:)
First of all, I love your block. It's just gorgeous! I can't wait to see what comes next. Secondly, I love it when you post show and tell. These quilts and projects are so awesome! I really like Charlotte's sewing room wallhanging. It's so very clever. And the additions of those embroidered block on the signature quilt really makes a statement. What a talented group of ladies.
Wow! Thanks for the eye candy! I have been guilty of joining stitch-alongs just to have something to work on in my applique bee too!
beautiful quilts. thanks for the "quilt show'. always love to see what others have made and get inspired
I like the soft purple in your block and the wool looks like it would be to stitch. Thanks for sharing the quilt photos with us!
