So I am slowly 'forming decorative stitches' on these embroidered blocks for this reminds-me-of-1950's-curtains wall-hanging. And of course, I can't believe how just a simple process can bring such beautiful results. I swear, the yellow flowers seemed to pop up in bloom right before my eyes. The smattering of those yellow flowers were so much fun to stitch and so much fun to look at. And as someone who used to only paint, this is by far a better medium to be working with.

Your right those yellow flowers really do "pop". I love the fact that there is a little green mixed in there as well. It is really quite stunning, I might have to learn how to do that myself.
Oh, that's gorgeous!
When I first saw your pictures of this quilt, I absolutely loved it! Now I love it even more!! Simply beautiful! You are truly an artist!
How lovely your embroidery looks. It is very soothing to work on it, I find.
