This Amy's block from the Beautiful Beginnings rr at CQI Novice. I am the last one to visit with the block and had to tie some elements togehter. I created a little butterfly out of some flower petals, added a nice arrangement in the white/beige block, added some sre roses on the blue patch to tone it down and a bullion flower in the mauve patch. I also added bullion roses and some pink organza ribbon along a long seam to help tie it all together. I also added lace on the bottom left and added some seam work in a nice variegated thread to complement the colors in the block! I sure hope you enjoy the block, Amy! OH!! I also added a beaded necklace for your silkie! VBG!

I love this block, the colors are gorgeous! Nice job tying together all the lucious stitching. Adorable butterfly. Debbie (Maine)
Leslie,
Thanks for sharing your thinking process of tying it all together in elements, balance, style and color. That is something I think us newbies just might need a lot more of, unless it is just a natural born talent for some! Amy is gonna love this!
Hey! Darling vase of tiny flowers, Leslie. And BLUE roses--love it! Can't do them myself, LOL Lynn in So/Cal
Stunning! Amy will be thrilled! I could enjoy looking at the photo of this block for hours! Susan is right - we newbies really love to read the thinking process on this. I know it doesn't come naturally to me. Thanks Leslie! Hugs, Di
Beautiful block!! The blue bullion roses are a perfect touch, that little bit of blue really adds a 'spark'. Lovely :)
Hello Leslie, Your stiting is soo very pretty on this block. I am sure the owner will love it. Hugs Judy
