| My 3D Heart Block |
As Promised I designed a new block for me today. I found these lovely fabrics in my stash and decided to do a block which could be used on its own or in a sampler block quilt. A little while ago I was asked by a former teacher Cheryl Billings Smith to come up with a block for a sampler quilt. So this is it.

I have been in an apron swap and I got a lovely lady from USA. Her request was blues, and she would like a bib and a longer apron, she liked roses and frills. I had this gorgeous fabric with roses and cup cakes and teapots and sugar bowls on it, so it seemed the best option. I then teamed it with some blues and one of them was a rose print. I was then package and sent off overseas.
A little over a week later a surprise arrived in her mailbox and she now has my apron to wear whilst she is cooking. Oh by the way she says she loves it! I am now just waiting for my apron to arrive in the mailbox for me.
