Laurie's All About Angels CQI RR

This block has one of the prettiest colour schemes ever!  Shades of dusty lilac and a deep cream are just beautiful together and I really enjoyed adding my stitching to it.  Here is Laurie N's block after Wendy, Debbie and my work.  

I made a lace flower for the top left corner and added bullions and gold beads to the seam.

I filled the patch with scallops of golden chains and added an angel inside each.  Below the seam is a pretty piece of lace with exactly the same size scallops.

A sparkly piece of lilac ric-rac covered  another seam, and in the bottom patch I added some swirls and Kiko's flowers.

Diane!!! I am in Heaven right now!! This block is so beautiful, and I finally have a picture to prove it! I LOVE everything you've done on it, the details put into it are awesome, I can't wait til this comes home to see it in person, as long as I don't drool on it! Thanks so much!

Diane, what a lovely block this is indeed! And your stitching is beautiful, adding so much to the whole. Gerry will talk about this block someday! :-)

You have been so busy! I love the Pooh cake (Happy Birthday Elijah! What a cutie he is). And the gumpaste leaves. :-)

The “Mother” quilt arrived home to me, and I love it. Today is the 5th anniversary of my mother’s passing, so even the timing was perfect.

Love and hugs,
Cathy
