CQ embroidery






I love just about anything in  blue and white . My collection of blue & white porcelain is all over our house and my blue fabric stash  seems to have taken over . So when I got Darlene`s blue & white Asian Block in the mail I had no problem working on it. The upper left corner had a larger piece of fabric with feathers printed on it and so I was sure it needed a bird,this is my version of a White Peacock. The eye in the feather is a swarovski crystal and I used white beads to frame it. A little enamel flower ball fin the corner and a small bead with a  silver charm finish my work. On the lower right was a little corner piece just right for the porcelain bird and charm.As always it was fun to see how the block comes together and it will be mailed to the next member to finish it.
