The Harvest Peacock?
Well, this will be my next block. It'll probably be a few days before I start it. I want to do some iron-on transfer embroidery first. I just thought you'd like to see this one. I'm thinking, maybe another peacock in the series. Will have to stare at it for a few days before deciding.
I'm not quite sure what the orange fabric is. It may be a cotton lame' but I'm not 100% sure. It has a lovely gold shimmer to it. The brown is a cotton print with gold metallic outlining the design. The solid gold is a crushed lame'. Very cool looking but hard to sew. Last but not least, the leaf fabric is a sheer organza with metallic gold & copper embossed leaves on it. I put some plain gold lame' behind it. This stuff is tricky because the embossed leaves are not ironable! I pretty much had to finger press it to the best of my ability!
So stay tuned to see where I go with this one!

Crazy Quilt Eye Candy
I thought you might enjoy seeing some gorgeous Crazy Quilting! I could stare at these pieces all day and never get anything done around here!

I must warn you though, if you're on dial-up, you'll want to go get a snack and something to drink. Both sites take about 3 or 4 minutes to load on dial-up but I promise you, these are well worth the wait!

Butterfly Block Completed!
Well, I enjoyed this block so much! I can't believe it's done. I had to force myself to stop stitching on it. Scott said there's too much junk on it. He said it's too crazy. I told him is a CQ, it's supposed to be that way!
When I was spending all my stitching time doing X stitch, all I could think of when I was stitching, was how fast could I get it done so I could get to the next project. Anyone else ever feel that way? I was never in the moment, always thinking of the next pattern.
But with CQing and transfer embroidery, I never feel that way. My focus is always on what I'm doing and I actually feel a little sad when I complete projects now because I enjoy them so much!
