I've been enjoying all the flowers in my yard this summer. We have lived here for almost 22 years now so I think we are almost finished landscaping. We add one or two new flowers, or trees, or shrubs each year. So, when I came across this tiny flower quilt hiding in my sewing room, I decided it was time to finish this project, I bought this kit from a vendor at the Minnesota Quilt Show a couple of years ago. It will only be 10 1/4 x 14 1/2 inches when it is finished. It is a Primitive Gatherings design by Lisa Bongean called Little Buds.
I have all the little flower pieces cut now. Next is the added embroidery. After I trim the blocks I add a few borders. One of the borders uses 1/2 inch thangles. I have never used thangles before so makes it fun to try something different. I think it is like paper piecing.
Enjoy the summer, it is over too fast! This year we added a raised bed garden. I am loving having a vegetable garden again.
Have a creative day
Janet
