RR#1 - Maureen

Here's the next block done...for Maureen. The fabrics were gorgeous blues and the lace was delicate. A monotone blue block was my first idea...but I don't like doing monotones, as I find them to be boring. So, that idea was quickly discarded. So, what else was blue...sky? water? I had already done a seascape so water was not a first choice...and the lace was just not right for that anyway. So sky was my background...and flowers were my direction (you know I love flowers). Maureen loves embroidery baskets...and has several on her blog if you have not yet been there to visit. So, I hoped than a woven basket filled with flowers might make her smile. Added some rose inspired seams and a button cluster with a small floral cabochon I had beaded the fringe on. Finished off with a little baby dragonfly, a lady bug, and butterfly...

Heading home in a few days Maureen...
