| Leanne's original finished quilt. |
My friend Julie from Australia and I are making this quilt together. We started with different blocks and are working at our own pace. We message back and forth, chat, share photos of our progress and offer advice and encouragement as we proceed.
I started with Block 5, the one that has the most stitching. I intentionally chose this block because it's been a while since I had a really good, long stitch-in. I'm happy I did because I'm savouring each and every stitch.
My goal is to finish this block sometime this week. Stay tuned!
Happy stitching!

So beautiful, Kaaren! I can see why you were drawn to it. When I saw the thumbnail of the quilt on my dashboard, I thought it was something you had designed.
Your stitching is impeccable!
Un treball precios. Ja tinc ganes de veure'l acabat.
Petons !!!
Great to see you working on this quilt. I too love the use of embroidery on quilts. I completed this same quilt a few years ago and love it. Enjoy the journey.
That is a lovely block, Your work is so nice. Hope all is going well with you and hubby. Hugs, Marie

this is a wonderful project, I did this quilt a year ago and enjoyed every minute! It was definitely a labour of love. Enjoy!
What a wonderful long term project you have chosen.
This is gorgeous! I am working on Leanne's Journey of a Quilter BOM right now. Her designs are fabulous. Enjoy!
It is soooo beautifull! I'm looking forward to see your progress. I totally fall in love with this design too.
Actually a question rather than a comment. What thread are you using for this? and how did you transfer the pattern onto your background? Your stitching is really nice.
this is a beautiful design and can see you are getting lots of pleasure stitching it as we will get pleasure following your progress
Que preciosidad!!!!!
Beautiful, great work!
beautiful start to this. Can't wait to see more :)
Beautiful!
That is a gorgeous quilt!
I am sure you will enjoy making this one, and it will be just as beautiful!
I've been messing around with this quilt for 6 months now, but I can't seem to get any traction on it. Maybe you will get me going again!
Dear Karen,
your stitching looks wonderful.
I made Lea's Garden a few years ago, also by Lynette Anderson. Loved the design, colors and stitching and had lots of fun with it. Wish you as much fun as I had.
Greetings,
