Renee's CQI Winter/Christmas Block Completed 05/13/2014

This week, I finished embellishing the "Dream" block from the Crazy Quilting International  Winter/Christmas Do Your Block Round Robin I participated in last year!

I added a few blue flowers at the top, a button snowman, and my first attempt at a button cluster (which looks more like a button spray to me, but I tried!)

Lazy Daisy Flower with Beads

Button Cluster

Button Snowman

Now, I just need to assemble all 6 blocks into a wall hanging and this work in progress project will be complete!

To see what WIPW projects Sharon and others have been completing, check out this week's WIPW post at Pin Tangle - do not forget to check out the links in the comments.  You will see some amazing work! (To learn more about WIPW, click here.)

Last Week's Goals:

1. My block to embellish from the CQI Winter/Christmas DYB Round Robin Done - seen above
2. The wall hanging I plan to create with all of my CQI Winter/Christmas blocks
3. My CQJP 2013 May block - better late than never?! (It is referred to as Block 4 if you follow this link.)
4. A crazy quilted hexagon to participate in my first swap with the World Wide Crazy Quilters Yahoo! Group
5. A change purse for myself
6. Complete my April CQJP 2014 block.
7. Have a count of at least 50,000 words for my CampNaNoWriMo novel.
8. Make a purse with my April CQJP 2014 block.
9. Embellish my May CQJP 2014 block.
10. Make a purse with my May CQJP 2014 block.
11. Complete a gift by the end of May.
12. Embellish one of Lisa's CQI Hearts DYB RR blocks. (They really are GORGEOUS!)
13. Freebie Santa and the Mouse Ornament - Heaven and Earth Designs chart by Michele Sayetta and artwork by Scott Gustafson. (I believe the ornament is a portion of the chart "Santa and the Mouse.") Complete 700 x-stitches. I met about half of this goal.  I forgot how hard cross-stitching can be on my wrists, so I need to slow it down. My progress to date is below.
