Okay,



I finished the top panel for the Roseville Album Quilt just now.  Whew!

I need to make a doorknob and there's a large circle that goes on top of the plant in the lower left corner.  So, when I get my circle making stuff out again for another block I'll make those two extra.

I've decided to name this block "My Full Time Job".  Working on it everyday felt like a job sometimes.

I laughingly call this quilt the Co2 quilt because there are so many bubbles (circles) on it.   I didn't put the circles on the lower or left panel thinking I could get away without them.  But, I can't so I'll have to go back and make them carbonated as well.

Hope you have time to put in a few stitches today.

This block is beautiful. Love the bright colorful fabrics. I am trying to gather up enough nerve to do a similar applique quilt.

This is amazing ; so much WORK involved !! Beautiful :) Yes a full time job...applique is very time-consuming. I think the prep takes longer than the sewing.

Beautiful applique. I can see why you want to add more circles although it looks wonderful right now. Good luck.
