      Beautiful work! Actually, the embroidery stitching is very basic and does not take long to do.

        So Sorry! I accidentally deleted my last post trying to edit and re-add a smaller photo so it would show up, which also deleted the comment made on my post. So Sorry!. I don't know how to undelete on the forum.
        I finished my BOM with the photo from the kit and website as I was too impatient to wait for the next month. I can't wait to see the BOM 2025. Hope this one posts ok.

          Well I started late so haven't gotten as far as everyone--have just finished (finally) all the blocks from month 3 and all those outside arcs (at least the arc part--still need to sew on the outside part to make them square). But, am finally up to the long cabin blocks--Woo-Hoo--I can finally put away all the piles of fabric heaped on my cutting table--it looks like an explosion. Can't wait as applique is my favorite thing.
