Button Blocks #20 & #21

I finished up stitching the seams on this block yesterday:

Button Block 20

I have to run to WalMart and pick up a prescription for my mom and then I should be able to stitch this afternoon.

When I finish up on the pink & silver block, I'll be doing this one next:

Button Block 21

This is the "special" block that I mentioned last week. Allie sent me this gorgeous peacock:

Peacock

It's hand-painted and so beautiful and ya'll know I have this thing for peacocks! I knew the moment I saw it that it had to go on my Button Quilt! So this will be the focal point for this block.

I'm starting to think that I want this quilt to be quite large. Somewhere in the 80 - 100 block range. Since I'm on #20, I still have quite a way to go yet! Stay tuned!

  3. Love the roses, Pam, and also the shamrocks. That peacock button is beautiful and should be right at home on your lovely block.

    Beautiful as always. I have a peacock pin that I've been going to send you forever but have lost it in my jewelry boxes somewhere. I'll find it when I'm looking for something else. I have a resident leprechaun who hides things.
