I just had to get it finished.....

Sorry for the not so beautiful view of my washing machine... but this is where my block is hiding from the children until I decide what I'm going to do with it to store it until I've finished the quilt! I had promised myself (and my husband) that I wouldn't buy the second magazine of Vignette until I'd completed the first block. Was very good incentive to get in and get this finished last night!!
So, within about 5 minutes of finishing it I'd jumped onto the computer and ordered Vignette #2 from Perri's online store.
Just wanted to encourage those who are still stitching - keep going with your stitching - sometimes it can get hard to complete the blocks (trust me... I know this one too well!!)... but it's well worth sticking with it and getting the block finished!!

  3. Debbie.... yep, I did all the piecing first and then did the stitching. I like to do it all that way.

    Shez... thanks!

    flowerofshona... I think there are a few overseas girls doing this one. Maybe French girls? So there must be something available somewhere!
