CQJP - April - WIP

I've had a busy and enjoyable week of stitching.

Here is what I have been up to.

My April Crazy Quilt Block - the Naked block

And here are some seam treatments close up photos.

Back to back Crossed Buttonhole stitch (TAST stitch week 18) in pale green perle cotton.

A couched blue satin ribbon and green cotton floss detached daisy's forming a 'V'. This seam treatment will have more added to it later. Probably beads.

This next seam started out as a double herringbone using two colours.

It may look alright in the photo, but on the block the colours were all wrong, so I went over it with a wrapping stitch.

And this is a chain variation whose name I have forgotten.

As I completely forgot to add a crochet piece on last months block, I thought I had better get one made early on for this block, just in case I forget again.

This time I made a crochet ruffle.

So that is my April block WIP so far.
