The embellishing commences
After corresponding with Trish,I've decided to use this naked block as an ongoing demonstration for the "Beginners 101" in the Round Robin which posts out May 15.
You can see that there are 9 patches and 8 seams (if I've counted correctly!)
Initially,I've pinned in position a length of lavendar braid(which I'll sew into postion later);
I'll "play" with other pieces of lace,etc and then decide whether to use embroidery on all the seams,or lace,etc.
As this block is part of a "Rainbow Garden"theme,I need to stay with floral ideas---wheelbarrow charms, garden tools,a hand holding a spray of flowers----
Watch this space!
