North Pole Village IV

Another set of UFO embroidery blocks is now a top and ready for quilting.  i can't find when i embroidered these. they are machine applique...done with the embroidery machine. the designs come from Designs by JuJu. i just love her designs.  she has many North Pole Village designs like these....some are applique...some are stitched....some are color wash. and all are beautiful.

This top came to 44 x 54.  it is such fun picking out the fabrics to use for the applique.

and the Doll shop. i like when blocks have windows to fill.....see the kitten that i put in this window?

The blocks are flannel...the sashings are a fabric that i dyed....and the border is a commercial fabric from the stash. i love the idea that i got here about putting the sashings on as you piece the blocks together. that is such a time saver and a cool idea.

I haven't checked her designs in a while...there might be some new ones.  i might need to go check that out.

I have a quilt that i use on my bed in December that has North Pole Village I, II and III blocks on it. and all the blocks are different.
