I have been having some trouble publishing my blog so I have not been writing lately. Today, I decided I would try publishing and see what would happen.

I saw a new wool appliqué quilt pattern in February and it was love at first sight.

Solstice Dream was designed by Kerry Green of kerry stitch designs. The quilt is 36" x 42".

I decided to use hand dyed wool from Wooly Lady, I chose turquoise wool as my background. The butterfly is the first block I stitched, I really love stitching with the hand dyed silken pearl by Thread Gatherers. The finished size of the block is 6" x 12"
