My family quilt and FNSI results too

I have been working on the stitcheries for the family quilt and have finished another panel off since the last lot of pics.  In fact for FNSI I finished off the hair on the little girl which completed panel 2 and started work on the last panel by the stitching you see in the pic and also two hearts that needed buttonhole around them too.




This is the beginnings of the third and final panel.


Also to share are some pics of the garden that I took at midday so it was pretty bright out there.  But it shows the roses out in full bloom too.

Lovely stitching - that quilt is looking very pretty.
Love the garden pics - how nice to have somewhere to sit and enjoy the pretty flowers.
Enjoy the sunshine.

I love that birdhouse stitchery! There are a lot of nice patterns in this quilt. You said it was Homespun magazine? Was it just one issue or is it a series?

And your garden looks spectacular! It must smell wonderful.

I like your panels, Katherine. They are inspiring. Your roses look terrific, too. Ours are nowhere near as lush and full, but still, the colours are great at the moment.

And your garden - it is beautiful!
