The last two blocks are finished! Go, me!!!
Emily's:
The colors wouldn't come out right when I uploaded the picture. The pink is actually a very pretty rosy pink, the check on the left is a light lilac, and the green at the top should be a nice sage. Oh, well. I'm a quilter, not a photographer. I made the little lace lamb on my embroidery machine using this design from Embroidery Library. I needle tatted the green and pink lace pieces and also made my own cording that I couched for the staff. The '97' is made with French knots.
John Ross':
Ignore the basting stitches on the right corner, please. Those will come out soon.
The crown of thorns was done by couching another cording that I made. The couching stitches are meant to look like red thorns. I also dyed the lace yellow.
I have been working on adding the borders. More on that later. I am trying to come up with a name for the quilt so I can enter it in a show. I was thinking 'Inspirations' and then Roxann threw in 'Desperation.' So...Inspiration and Desperation? Inspired Desperation? Desperately Inspired? Blood, Sweat, and Tears? I Can't Believe You Wasted 14 Months of Your Life? Suggestions?
