As you can see, I am trying to stick with the landscape theme of the first two blocks. I am curious to see how these will transform!

I have yet to decide which block I will work on first, but at least I have them mostly assembled for March, April and May.
Although we are entertaining guests this evening (and I have a ton to do), I spent my morning browsing through photos (a.k.a. eye candy) of work other crazy quilters have done. And, I came to a conclusion. I may have to attempt an encrusted block sometime soon. I find myself drawn to encrusted work, but I tend to leave a lot more space and use fewer laces and trims, as fitting them in is a challenge for me. (Perhaps I am a bit too picky. I also have a hard time finding laces that I like...)
Stepping outside of my comfort zone always makes me feel a little bit giddy - it must be due to the collision of feeling slightly intimidated by the task I am facing and feeling determined to prove to myself I can do it.
Thank you for stopping by!

Cant wait to see how you embellish these! Love that lightning fabric. Oh my! I need to find something like that here.
I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with these blocks. Your lightning fabric is way cool!
Wow, I really love the fabrics of block 4 and wish I could have them in my stock.

Thank you! I used Google to find a bit more info on the fabrics (as I purchased them as fat quarters.) The lightning fabric is called "Lightning Storm" at jandofabrics.com. The product ID is nat00065. The brown fabric is a screen print by Hoffman California International Fabric and is style #PN008 (However, I could not find it on their website.) And the blue swirl fabric, I am unsure about. I believe I purchased it at Jo-Ann Fabrics.
