Sentimental Stitches

Last night I kept looking at the two block pictures I uploaded for this month’s Beyond The Cherry Trees block and darn it all, there were hidden stitches staring me right in the face. It looked like a simple fix of just adding the quilting designs to each side of the block. Not too worry, the block is the correct size with all it’s leaves but there’s a little more to it so I’ve taken the file down until I can make some additions and will post it again later today.


Here’s the hidden flower quilted on the right side of the block.


This is the empty space where a flower was quilted on the left side of the block.

After this discovery I decided I’d better pry the quilt away from Clutch who had claimed it to cushion his perch on the corner of the couch. Not wanting to disturb him I drafted the pattern working from a photo copy I’d made of the block a long time ago. Okay, okay, yes, Clutch is one spoiled Mama’s boy and the lesson learned here is to draft the pattern from the actual block on the quilt because look what I found.


See that little snippet of cheddar fabric? That’s what’s left of the tail feathers on a tiny bird. Need to add that!


I think there is a bottom layer the this flower where the fabric is completely gone. Need to determine the original color and add that!

Sorry guys, I’ll be back in a while with the corrections.
