A couple of weeks ago I shared some dupioni silk blocks that I was working on during our drive down to Florida. You can see them in my post titled "Hitting The Road".
I finished one of them and have made a couple more.
The blocks measure 14" finished. I fuse the silk down with a fusible applique called Soft Fuse, stitching a few pieces at a time. My plan is to make a dozen of them, all different.
I design another one as I finish the last one. The plan is for them all to have a Jacobean flavor.
They will surround a center square. The design for the square is still percolating in my head.
It's a bit slow going because I started the first block with hand stitching and so I will continue that until the quilt is done.
