Days of Delight Calendar

 Woohoo, today I caught up on the BOM Days of Delight Calendar by Val Laird.  I did not get started until June, so I had a lot of catching up to do.  Following are my blocks for June, July and August and some pictures of all the blocks together. This has been a challenging BOM as Val likes to include some more challenging embroidery stitches, and I love it!!!!  One of my stitches I think I "invented" but then it may have been around for awhile and I had just never seen it used.  I call it Bullion Daisy and first you make a Bullion stitch and then surround that stitch with a Daisy Stitch.  I did this on my June month block.

So here is my progress as of Today!

Blume and Grow Quilt Completed!



 This morning I completed the Blume and Grow Quilt and want to just post some pictures of the finished quilt.  This was a joy to make and I enjoyed every step.  I did modify the pattern a little, but not very much.  This is a pattern by Natalie Bird of Birdhouse Patchwork Designs.   I did not use the kit, just bought the pattern.

So here goes......camera roll......................
