Blush and an Impulse

 I started the Rose of Sharon blocks on an IMPULSE. I got sent to Australia for work.  I knew I would have LOTS of time for hand stitching on the long plane ride over.  I grabbed some fabric from my stash and this is the result. It's an original pattern and I am sketching and adding rows as I go. 

I started  last April.  Now it's finally off the wall. Yeah! I am finally quilting!


I cut a stack of paper  14 x 14 inches and then started cutting them into snowflakes... really. Then I sketched and sketched to come up with a way to quilt the other blocks.





Finally a border idea I love....



 Now I still need to come up with something for the vine border... and it has to match these and the center.
