I know if you stop by and see some of the great blocks you will want to make them. Enjoy!!

Well, I have finally decided on my new quilt project for the quilt show in the fall. I love these "confetti blocks" and the perfect way to highlight them with beautiful fmq embroidered flowers. I haven't decided yet if I want to highlight the flowers with Inktense color.

I have just received my Inktense blocks and this is the first time I have used them. I free hand sketched a flower in the basic shape I wanted and then I painted it with a brush and my new blocks. Using the Inktense blocks reminds me of using water color paints or pretty close. After the flower was finished and dried I used my sewing machine to highlight and thread paint the flower. I am happy with results and ready to do more.
