One of the advantages to sitting on the patio in the warm weather is that I gravitate to my hand work as it is portable and requires little equipment. I have now completed 2 appliqué blocks towards the Just Take 2 quilt and have a 3rd on the go.
I’m way behind on the piecing parts of the quilt, but I know I can catch up with that when the weather inevitably turns and I retreat back inside.
This is my entry for Katie's Hand Stitching Parade :o)

Just beautiful! I have some hand sewing to do too--binding on my recently quilted Roll Roll Cotton Boll. It is supposed to rain for the next few days so I may be doing my hand sewing inside.
Your applique blocks look wonderful...love the blue fabrics you are using!
Jane, did you sew it together or used the applique technique?
I love the way it is coming by the way!
Another lovely block Jane and perfect for sitting outdoors. I think we are in for some rain here as it is getting dark and breezy.
They are just gorgeous. I need to catch up on mine.
Beautiful job, Jane! I did some similar Hawaiian style applique a few years ago.
Please, oh please add this to tomorrow's Handmade Parade! You'd be the star of the link-up!
Oh, these are so lovely, Jane. Glad you've got nice weather and some handwork to enjoy.
WOW! look at all those curves "shudder"...too many for me to even fathom! :) its beautiful!
These are so pretty. I can't wait to see more. :)
These are beautiful! I haven't tried my hand at applique yet but I want to. Now I know who to come to when I need some pointers :)
