I love the way you filled the center of the block, it adds so much! Have you ever tried crazy quilting? you would be good at it.

Thank you, for me it seemed a little blank, sooo, I had to ad to the center. Not yet. But I am investigating just how I would like it. I am cutting out a beginner crazy right now. It isn't anything spectacular, but I think that it will be pretty. Thanks again for your lovely comments. :-)

All of your work puts your handprint on the design. I feel that making it personal adds the final touch. I love your work.

Thank you so very much for your lovely comments. This will be a very special quilt to me, it has the blocks of my sister & Aunt, so a very good memory quilt for me. Thanks again. :-)

What an excellent idea! That block cries out for something in the middle - I had to do something with mine too, but needed to hide a multitude of sins, so embroidery wouldn't have covered it! I think yours is terrific!

Thank you Mindy, I am adding embroidery to a couple other blocks also. I really do not have any plan on how many I will do. I thought that they would compliment the two blocks of my sisters & my aunts. We will see. Thanks again.

At first, I thought you had fussy cut the center, but then read it was your handwork. Either way, it's lovely. Looks beautiful
