Finished the latest block for the Cherry Cake quilt yesterday. The pattern I drew for this block was inspired by an antique block and a Jan Patek block from her Millenium Garden quilt.
This is how the quilt looks so far - plans are percolating for a bird block, a house block and a laurel cherry block. My thoughts today are with the brave people of Japan as they deal with the tsunami tragedy. Thanks so much for visiting my blog and hope you find time to get a few stitches in!
