Friendship Stars  

 Black Turkey Red White ~ Hand Embroidered ~ Quilt Blocks

 
 
Apprx. 12 x 12 inches, each block.
 
 
 
I free-hand drew the hearts, and then hand-embroidered them.

 
No two are exactly alike.

 
I love doing hand-embroidery.

 
I used two strands of embroidery floss in this process.

Half Square Triangle  - Diamonds

 PIECED - Sewed - Quilt Top Blocks

 
 
 10 x 10 inches each.

 
I don't mind making this type block, since learning the "fast - half square triangles" method.

 
So unique.  No two blocks are alike, though some are cut from the same fabric.

Notice that the top two blocks have blue centers; and the bottom two blocks have white centers.

 
This is my ever attempt at making this type block.  Really easy.

Apprx. 10 x 10 inches each.

These blocks are done sorta in a log cabin - crazy style.

A beautiful row of embroidery accents each block.

Loving the fussy-cut centers.

⤵ Jumping over the TURNSTILES.  ⤳
 
I made a few turnstile blocks recently. This was a first at trying this style of blocks.
 
One would think that, as long as I've been sewing, since childhood, I would have already tried every block that has been made. Nope!
 

 These blocks are approximately 8.25 x 8.25 inches each.

The off-white fabric is called:  Japanese Garden.

 
 
These Cranberry, Green, White, Pink Floral blocks are 8 x 8 inches.
 

 
 These paisley blocks are 6.50 x 6.50.
 

 
The chicks blocks are 8 1/4 each.
 

 
 
I've notice that, depending on the color placement during construction, the turnstile blocks can look-like a totally different pattern; although it is the exact same pattern.
 
There are many more that I still haven't tried. ex. Martha Washington's star, Drunkard Path, etc., and those that are more easily pieced via hand.
