At Quilt Camp in October, I spent some time sewing these blocks into a quilt top. My mom worked them up a while ago ... It appears to have been for a class, probably to get to know one of her new machines, or her sewing machine feet. She finished the blocks, but never put them together or finished it. That happens -- You don't have to finish every project. Esp. for a class like this.
Since I like purple, this UFO called out to me to be finished. ;-)
Each block had a layer of batting as stabilizer on the back already, so I added the green sashing and borders, but needed an extra layer of batting to even everything out.
I stitched around all the blocks just to hold them in place. And then a simple free-motion leaf design along the green sashing.
Here are some detail shots of individual blocks:
And here are some close-ups of individual flowers:
Another finish for 2023!
