First Block for Crinoline Ladies

 One block done for the Crinoline Ladies quilt. 51 more to go! I'm going to make it scrappy. I have a lot of different purples, lilacs, and lavenders. These blocks won't be fast! All those little curves. 😬 I'm happily relieved it turned out as good as it did. I'm debating... shall I make each block scrappy within itself, or shall I make each block uniform? Hmmm...

Central Section, Crinoline Ladies

 The central section of the Crinoline Ladies quilt is done.  Now for the 52 blocks that surround it.  That entails cutting and piecing 832 units with curved seams.

Crinoline Lady No. 4

This design has a flying bird. I looked at my embroidery thread... and chose a pale, variegated, metallic pastel spool, thinking to make it look like a shimmering dove.

What I made is, in fact, a flying unicorn. A flying, sparkly, pastel-striped unicorn. 🤣

No, I won’t be picking out the threads. Fortuitously (and fortunately), Violet, who loves unicorns, will be delighted.
