Florets - March 2012<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Yes, I am working on the Flowering Snowball. It is a hand project (as I designed it to be) and I work on it when I watch TV.<\/p>\n

I did a lot of cutting a few weeks ago, as I mentioned and the result is that I am putting segments together until there are none left and then putting other segments together until I can start sewing blocks together. At the moment I am working on sewing a\u00a0foreground piece (the printed, colored fabric), which has been joined with a black on white piece to a different foreground piece that has been attached to a\u00a0 small black square.<\/p>\n
