Chieko's Calla Lily

Chieko's Calla Lily, J-10, 21 piece, hand appliqué.

16 melons in one tiny block, pufff 
while I was appliqué all those melons I promised myself,
never do another J-10.
But I know one should never say never.
Because you never know.

Until next time,
Happy stitching

Paula

When I did this block i was doing two that were MELON heavy! I said I had to take a break from all those darn tiny melons! But I do have to say it is such a nice block!

I remember this block, I think I did it over a week, so many melons, your block came out really well, lovely.

Hi, Paula - this looks so good!! I can see that block will take me several TV nights. (I only get to work on Baby Janes while watching a show with my hubby in the evening.) Hey, have you heard about this new Janiac blog yet? They've just started up and are taking new members. It'd be wonderful to see you there. http://janiacsunite.blogspot.com/

Lovely Paula! I remember this one and think about it often. My fabric selection was not the best and you can hardly see the melons. :(

such a perfect block! I started and was so afraid - that I put it back for later ;-)
greetings Brigitte
