I finished the EMS Larkspur Floral Beauty over the weekend and started on the new Love Quilts square. Will post a picture of the EMS square as soon as it is washed, dried and ironed. These designs are very easy to follow and don't take a lot of time to complete, especially with changing the floss colors all the time. I love these EMS designs and will probably stitch more of them as time permits.
The new Love Quilts square I signed up for is a Laborador puppy on a windowsill with some geraniums in a flower box. I think it will make a very nice square for the quilt being made for the little girl who loves dogs. I had a hard time picking out an appropriate pattern, but found it finally in one of my older pamphlets. This one has two dogs in the window, but I have shortened it down to just one, as it would have been too large for the Love Quilts requirements.
I had done a beautiful piece from these patterns several years ago for a friend who had three Laboradors living in the house with them. The pattern was one with three dogs in a field. I didn't take a picture of that one, like a lot of my work in the past, but now that I am keeping a record, I will take a photo of my new one for Love Quilts.
Very pretty!

ReplyDeleteLarkspur is really pretty.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a lovely finish!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the nice reviews ladies. I love to stitch, as I'm sure most of you do also. Since I retired in 2006, I've had a lot more time to stitch and have become involved in two different charity websites - one is Love Quilts and the other is World of Charity Stitching, where I am now one of the co-owners. Even though WOCS is a very small group, we get a lot of stitching done for seniors in a nursing home and children in a domestic violence shelter.
