I continued working this block during classes even though I had already started on it before the class began.
I need to have a steady progress if I am to complete mom's gift in time for christmas.
I had asked if the swan applique was too large for the block and we agreed that it was, so it is now gone and the whole block looks alot differen't now.
I also made some other changes , I hand dyed the sky area , added a smaller photo applique in the right hand corner.
I am not sure if some of the changes I made are for better or worse but here is a photo of my progress so far.
I ran out of dark green silk ribbon I am using for the cherry tree and had to order more. So I am waiting on that to come in so I can finish the weeping cherry tree.
Hopefully I will be able to finish up this block during the coming week if my silk ribbon arrives.
Thanks for visiting !
Have a great Sunday.
