Hello, my friends! How is your January shaking out so far? Our Christmas decorations are packed away, my sons are out of my house and back at their respective colleges, and I've been sewing up a storm. I won't get my hands on the first patterns for my Sarah Fielke BOMs until the LAST day of January, so I've been working on the backlog of client quilts in my queue and moving personal projects along so I'll be ready to kick off an Applique-Palooza on January 31st. Today I have two personal projects to share and one client's quilt to showcase. I'll be linking up with all the usual suspects (favorite linky parties, listed on my blog sidebar).

Thanks largely to the Medici the Magnificent series on Netflix, I stitched the last of the leaves on my Whig Rose blocks last night. Woo-hoo!

This is the first time I've had all nine blocks in progress on my design wall and I've gotta say, it's looking really encouraging! The center block is the only one that's 100% finished, but I had forgotten that I had a second block (bottom left) that was nearly finished except for the stuffed berries near the corner tulips.
