    Maggie, your block looks great, you really were fast. I have everything cut out, the berries ready to put on the block, still have to do the flower center, they are cut out but I got tired of making the circles. I have the star done, and working on the stems now I am doing needle turn applique.

      I will admit that I was tired of doing circles also. For the flower centers, I had a round satin stitch on my new Janome11000SE that I used that was perfect. I would think French Knots in the center rather than the circles would be a good choice, also.

              Ritzy, you have inspired me to finally start my BOM. I have chosen black and bold bright colors. I now am currently needle turning the stars. I am on the 3rd point but it will take me a long time. Did I say that I am working on the January BOM? Judy in AZ slow but steady

                    Your Oct machine BOM is great. Your machine applique quilt will be great.

                              Oh, oh. Now showing my lack of ethnic exposure what are "pierogies?" I could look it up on Google, but would rather have a personal picture! ha

                                Well, I have all of my October pieces ready to glue on to my background and begin machine applique so hopefully before I leave town on Saturday, I'll have it finished! Work sometimes gets in the way. ha
