It's time for block #3 of the "Happy Little Things" quilt by Jacquelynne Steeves!
I started my block with the lovely flower embroidery pattern that is the centre of the design. The fall leaves are starting to change colour here so it was fun to take a photo of the embroidery in a tree that is changing colours to match my threads!
In this month's pattern we get to make the rectangle triangle blocks which uses a technique that is unique to Jacquelynne patterns. I always have to look at the pattern, and look at my pieces several times laid out on the cutting mat before I'm sure I have it right. it's a bit tricky but just follow the instructions and it comes out perfectly every time!
Here is my version of block #3 with the borders added. Unlike the previous blocks,
this one only has 1 border around, so I chose 2 grey fabrics to compliment the colours of the embroidery and the pieced units.
So pretty!
And here are my first 3 blocks laid out on the floor.
It's going to be an awesome quilt!

Love how your blocks are coming out. I'm nearly done block 2 and hope to be doing the embroidery for block 3 on Sunday.

Looking at your rectangle triangle blocks there, I wonder if I would EVER get them right. :)

I like the fabrics you're using, not sure when I'll get my flower embroidered. Happy Stitching!
They are great blocks.
Your blocks are just lovely...the muted pastel look is very romantic and charming. I wish I'd chosen an similar palette---but it's not too late to start another! Blessings....

Your blocks are wonderful! I would like to learn to embroider but I have so many hobbies, I am not sure if I can take it on.
