... and the story continues....

The next block is the ship


.. it seems to be a pirate ship.....


... there is the threat of spells which girls don't like! ...


... there are also more placid past times.....


... and here is the applique kite....


... and the first row of blocks is finished....

(54" wide)


I am continuing slowly with Scandanavian Rose blocks as my hand work in the evenings.... slow but steady and I am just doing it all in backstitch .... I do love the pictures on these...


Righto, Gotto Go... still more blocks to get together.... and the Queens Birthday to enjoy.... perhaps we need cake?

Hello Fiona,
This quilt certainly tells a story. Enjoy your holiday, I thought Harry might have cooked a cake for you while he was in Australia, enjoy your holiday in Queensland.
Have a great week.
