Daisy Embroidery

I have had so much fun completing the second embroidery block of 'Le Jardin Quilt' designed by Bronwyn Hayes of Red Brolly Designs and offered FREE on her blog as part of the Girls Own Stitching Club.

This is how the completed embroidery looks.  Isn't it delightful?  I love the delicate daisies and I can't wait to make it up into a block for the quilt. I really enjoyed practising the different stitches.  I always like to have some hand stitching to do side-by-side with a quilting project.  Hand projects are easy to carry with you to do when you don't have much time or access to your sewing machine. Working on two (or more) projects, one by hand, the other by machine seems to me the perfect combination!
