End of Month 14 Pink Touch-Me-Not Show and Tell

End of the month and time to share more beautiful 
Shenandoah Valley Botanical Album blocks.

So many pretty appliqué blocks.

Shona also used a printed fabric for her background.


Great use of a Kaffe Fasset print
for the flowers.


Laurie is doing small blocks.
Love those yo-yo centers and embroidered stems!

All so beautiful!
Thank you for sharing.

Fantastic, isn't it?

C-5 Touch-Me-Not in Pink Month 14

Esther's block from the original quilt

"Double pink" cottons were used circa 1850 for children’s clothing. Two different versions of the print can be seen in this block." ...Neva Hart








Esther's block detail


This is the first block I stitched before I committed to making
the 9" blocks. I had to make sure I could capture the detail
in the flowers.  I enjoyed working with multiple pink and green fabrics.


Some of the buds were worked as one stitching straight across,
with the stem stitched over the top.
Dawn's Finished Block
Enjoy your pink Touch-Me-Not block.

Happy Stitching,
Doreen & Dawn
