Spring Squares from Karen R

These arrived in the mail a couple weeks ago but I just now got around to getting their picture up...

I love what she stitched for me!  I don't know if it shows up, but the apples and the bunny's tail are done in French knots.  They add a different bit of texture to the whole design.

I'm going to combine these with the previous seasonal rounds and finish them off into some kind of something...probably a wallhanging.

Thanks again Karen!

Overdue, but worth the wait...

...I let Carolyn L. know that I had received these but I wasn't able to post pics until today. Look at the lovely Spring squares she sent me. Isn't this a cute robin? I always love to see the robins appear in springtime, so it truly is a perfect square for me. Thanks, Carolyn!

I received this beautiful Chatelaine design from Jenn F along with a skein of her own hand dyed thread in daffodil which, of course I forgot to include in the photograph! Thank you, Jenn, I love my violets which I photographed on some violets in my garden! Jenn sent a single piece of fabric which is why I did not photograph the back.

Spring Round from Gillie K

Gillie (no blog) sent me these lovely squares for the Spring Round.

Spring Flowers by Debbie Draper Designs
Stitched over 2 with Glorianna Silks Highland Gardens

Gillie did a wonderful job with these squares - even the backs are beautiful! Thanks so much, Gillie!

Australia

These are some squares I sent off to Western Autralia.....They are overdyed silks on Evenweave. The pattern is an adaptation from the Antique Pattern Library and I think the swirl of the flowers lends itself beautifully to overdyes.
