All of you with the finished blocks; they are beautiful!
Lynn I'm glad the storm is only moderate by you. Hope it stays that way.

My block is posted. I thought it was a relatively easy block, compared to March, which I thought was very difficult. Everyone's blocks are so very pretty.

It is beautiful just the way it is Nancy. Somewhere around block 3 I left off a leaf. It's what makes each and everyone's block unique.

Very nice, Nancy! Your inset in the vase is very pretty.

Nancy, Love your vase as is! I left the bands off as I felt it was just too fussy. I almost forgot the small wisps of baby breath. Your block looks awesome!

Nancy, very nice inset. Really makes the vase lovely.

Nice, Nancy! I like it!

Margo,
Beautiful! I also plan to applique the skinny little vines for my baby breath - yours look FABulous. Great colors and choice of fabric.

Nancy, Your block is wonderful - love your colors and that is what I love about this BOM - every little thing doesn't have to be the same - they are all beautiful with the uniqueness of the touch of the artist.

I just posted my August BOM, I used beads for the BB's but you can't tell by the picture. I'm not sure I still like what I put in the center of the vase, I like what everyone else did better, oh well. Heidi

It's beautiful, Heidi!!! I'll bet the beads are awesome "in person"!

[Margo C.]

Nancy .. I agree with everyone else....Your block is beautiful just the way it is...Like me, you critisize yourself more than others. My younger sister once told me I was my own worst enemy. Have to remember that sometime. Keep up the good work. You at least have your August block finished. I haven't started mine yet. Too many other things taking up my time. Hope to have it finished before September rolls around. Nan F. :lol: :lol:

Heidi I love the babies breath. You can tell it is dimensional in the picture. Nice work!

All The blocks are so beautiful. This block has really inspired everyone and the results are amazing. Marge, just barely started on the August block

Thanks for all the kind words. All the blocks are wonderful. Heidi, I can see the dimension when I enlarged your photo. I almost bought some white beads but didn't and the French knots went on very quickly. I think September is lower right corner. I'm going to get my fabrics chosen so I can start it as soon as 9/1 arrives. Glad we have Sue's color photo to look at.
