I didn't get to my quilt group meeting this past week as the weather was a little iffy. Plus Larry came home with a box of ice cream and some hot fudge. What can I say - I'm easily swayed!
When I won the Sudoku kit from Laurie Minnick, she also threw in Petit Four squares of Charlevoix. I sewed them up into this small table quilt. In the spring it'll be on my kitchen table underneath and ironstone pitcher of flowers. In the meantime, it holds my stitching supplies.
And I pieced together these blocks I embroidered. It was one of the best projects I've stitched - almost all done in black floss.
And just a dab of color in a couple of the blocks.

We missed you at TTs! But given the choice of iffy driving weather or ice cream and hot fudge, I think you chose wisely! Hope you bring your blog show&tell to the next meeting.
I love your stitched quilt!! Really striking!
You have been busy! Love your small quilt and embroidery :)
Hugs,
Donna
Both of the quilts are just lovely! I really like them.
How great these stitchery projects are, I love ♥ them, you do beautiful projects! Of course I would also love the ice cream and hot fudge...that is what I always go for when offered a sundae... perfect choice I would say! Have a wonderful week, stay warm! Blessings friend, from my part of PA!
I love the stichery quilt...great job!
You have inspired me to do something smiliar but with a New Zealand Theme.
Love your work. I'm an ice cream with chocolate syrup kinda girl. It's always more fun to share ice scream with someone else. Love your projects. There's something so classic about embroidery designs in one color. Awesome work.
I think you made a wise choice with the ice cream Mary! I love the piece with the embroidered squares. You are such a talented lady.
Have a special week.
Hugs, AMY
I noticed that all stitched up in your house as I was leaving saturday, I meant to mention it but forgot! I love it with the black stitches, so pretty! You are good. :)
ps- I had fun and am very much looking forward to our group. ;)
I love your black stitchery...I am about to start one all in black as well...I just have to finish drawing everything...your table mat is very cheerful too!
Hi Mary ~ BEAUTIFUL stitching, as always! That black is so neat, and I love your little table quilt. I can just picture it, like you said, with a pitcher of flowers on it. Hope all is well ~ ♥
These are darling! Quite alot of hard work with all the embroidery but well worth it, it's gorgeous!
what a lovely quilt! I'm not always sure about stitching and quilting, but I love this piece.
Which size is it?
