Oh, No!!
Oh, no...oh, no....it is another one. Yup...another freebie Block of the Month. It is called "Home Sweet Home" from Paula Stoddard of Pacific Patchwork.It can be found on her blog. Quilt Happy (scroll down a bit past the picture of the cute Boston Terrier). I found this quite by accident. It is supposed to be a "stitchery" type block each month. However, in my infinite wisdom...I decided to deviate from the normal path on this one. I decided to do all the letters and their pieces in wool applique. (Notice a trend starting here??) I am also going to go completely out of my "safe" zone of colors. I had purchased a jellyroll of the new "Sunkissed" fabric and have chosen a few of these fabrics to use for this pattern. Each letter square is only 4 1/2 inches big....so...my applique pieces are vewy, vewy (ala Elmer Fudd) tiny. The upside to the size is that it is relatively quick to stitch up...check out my first letter:
I was really surpirsed the background fabric design showed up so well in the photograph. The Sunkissed fabrics will be used for the borders.
