This week, I managed to finish embroidering around the applique on these 4 darling blocks designed by Carla at Creatin' in the Sticks for the Sun, Sand, and Sea Block of the Month. I still need to sew the striped blocks together (the fabric is all cut) and sew the 8 blocks together. I hope to find time to finish that this week!
I used a buttonhole stitch around each piece of applique, stem stitched the legs, and satin stitched the eyes.
This is my first block of the month experience and I absolutely love all of the blocks that have been introduced. I am very thankful that Amy at Sew Incredibly Crazy and her blogging friends have put together such a fun quilt.
Thank you for stopping by!

What charming life one would have at the seaside, if one were a seagull.
I wonder what's in his glass, a fish smoothie, kelp cocktail or seafood juice?
It looks like it's going to be a fun BOM, Renee!
That does look like fun. I misunderstood before and thought the seagull was part of a new CQ project. This is an adorable quilt! I especially love the fat little guy in the beach chair! Well done.
It is a really cute Block of the Month, isn't it! Your versions turned out great!
Thanks so much for linking up to last week's Stitchery Link Party and for linking back. Aloha hugs!
