Block one!!!!

It is so exciting to share the first block of the Vignette BOM. I had already stitched the centre and one side before I joined this blog and have found that being a member of a group certainly helps with the motivation. I really enjoyed the embroidery though there is a lot of it. I am very glad that the magazine only comes out every 3 months as I can now concentrate on a few other projects. I am using an old Nancy Halverson range called Angels Among us for my piecing and some neutral fabrics in my stash for the backgrounds.

Happy stitching,
Sylvia in Australia

    Is this an Australian magazine? I have seen it in my corner of the US and wonder where I would be able to buy it. I have not done a lot of stitching in recent years but love the look of this.

    Lol I can only echo what everyone else is saying... What lovely work and I just love the colour combination of the blocks surrounding it... I might even be persuaded to break my own golden rule about starting something new this year - trying hard to clear a backlog from well, day dot...
