Another beauty! Then I sort of laughed to myself thinking a garden of contentment wouldn't have any weeds. Wish my gardening season coming up would be like that :)
I hope this project gives you a true feeling of slow stitch contentment. We all need a bit of something to have in hand if it's needed. I'm afraid I'd be tempted to substitute, "Rushed, Stressed, Weary, etc." to my own blocks. Yours will be a good reminder, I'm sure. Oh, and Corey's fabric is really a light-hearted addition to it. She's a local gal here.
Goodness Billie I love your version better than mine - the fabrics are gorgeous and so is your fussy cutting! I think your seams are straighter too, lol! Love it!!!!
Billie, I am so completely digging the 70s vibe of your colors on this project! I got a new car four weeks ago - a convertible Beetle! - and suddenly I'm all about 60s and 70s music while I have the free Syrius radio trial period. This project of yours goes right along with my little pocket of fun right now. :)

Billie, You are doing a wonderful job of making those block they are beautiful.
Another beauty! Then I sort of laughed to myself thinking a garden of contentment wouldn't have any weeds. Wish my gardening season coming up would be like that :)
Beautiful blocks Billie. Love your fabrics. I still have to do my borders on mine. I’m loving this project.
This is fresh looking and so pretty. Great stitching.
I hope this project gives you a true feeling of slow stitch contentment. We all need a bit of something to have in hand if it's needed. I'm afraid I'd be tempted to substitute, "Rushed, Stressed, Weary, etc." to my own blocks. Yours will be a good reminder, I'm sure. Oh, and Corey's fabric is really a light-hearted addition to it.

moving right along on this. Its going to be beautiful
Darling, darling, darling quilt! I also really like Dwight's music. I'm a country girl.
Those blocks are darling. Love the embroidery. It's going to be a very sweet quilt.
You don't always come into my feed, so back tracked on these so pretty blocks. I Love the fabrics you are using and you embroidery is so well done.
Goodness Billie I love your version better than mine - the fabrics are gorgeous and so is your fussy cutting! I think your seams are straighter too, lol! Love it!!!!
Your garden is turning out so well. VERY beautiful!
Your blocks are so beautiful. The fabrics you've chosen are so bright and happy :)
Beautiful blocks! Love the bright colors, definitely makes me think of summer time.

All your blocks look wonderful together! I probably wouldn't have picked these colors, but they are so great, now I might, having seen yours.
