      Ann, some very good ideas. since I have put beads on now, items not of sewing would work then too.
      Marge, the french knots are very nice, it really compliments your block.
      Marguarita, I hadn't noticed how you outlined the stars before, That is a great look.
      thanks everyone, for the nice compliments.

                      Ritzy; another great block. How do you find the time to do 2 in one month, especially needle turning one of them?

                            I've posted my August block. I put a few french knots on but they don't show up so think I'll take them out and put some beads or crystals on after I quilt.

                            For those of you that are adding the beads now, are you going to hand or machine quilt? I'd like to put them on now but plan to machine quilt and am afraid I'll break them while quilting. How are you all going to handle that?

                            Love all of the blocks. I really like the idea of adding some personal items in your blocks.

                              Sandy, do we have guild tomorrow? Do you know what the program is? Gas is cheaper now so I might, I say might, venture on down the road. Judy

                                Hi Sandy,

                                When I get around to making my August block, I will more than likely use beads, but I will add them after completing my machine quilting!
