Blogtoberfest Day 21 : A Finish

Hi Everyone!!

Day 21 of Blogtoberfest

I'm indeed not able to commit as promised. It has been three days I did not post anything at my blog. I was busy sewing the Garden Steps quilt top during the weekend...

It was not my intention to finish it up so quickly, but once I've started working on it, I just couldn't stop!

I used Domestic Bliss and some Ruby fabric which I bought from Sew Lux Fabric & Gifts.

Here is the result of the finished quilt top and I LOVE it!! It measures about 63" x 82".

Happy Sewing!!

Blogtoberfest Day 8 : Garden Steps - Block #12

Hello Everyone!!

It's day 8 of Blogtoberfest...

I finished stitching the last block for the Garden Steps Quilt Along that joined at Clover & Violet.
This is how the label block looks like...

I choose November month as the month to finish up the quilt...

With that finished, I have to look back at the layout on how to sew all the twelve blocks together.

Till then...

Happy Stitching!!

Garden Steps : Block #11

Hello !!

I finished stitching the Garden Steps Block #11 yesterday...and here is the result. For this block it's a butterfly!!

I used a lot of chain, satin, and back stitch with French knot stitch for stitching the butterfly. Among the 11 blocks that I've stitched, this is the only block that I used three colors of thread.

Having this Block done, it means the Garden Steps Quilt Along is coming towards the end with only one more block left ... Block #12.

Till next time ... Happy Stitching to everyone!!
