ABC Sampler

My applique is getting more primitive the more I do! 

  This is M- for Mother. There was a lot I didn't like about this one, but when it is all assembled it won't matter much. 
I appliqued the heart block and added it to the K-L-Q-R section. One one of the samples I'm using for a guide it has the alphabet stitched in here and one was plain- I went for the plain one! I can add the year and my initials later.
Getting it all to fit is a real hit or miss challenge.

See Karen's version HERE. 

Have a fantastic Wednesday!

    Hit or miss for sure! We are making good progress and interesting to see how each of us interprets the designs and the fabrics used. I am enjoying doing this with you.

    Just came from Karen's blog. You each have your own "flavor" to this quilt--each one uniquely you. Enjoying following your progress. : )

    I started one of Cheri's patterns a few years ago. It was and is a challenge to figure out where everything goes. But, I still love the primitive vibe despite those challenges. Seeing the blocks you and Karen are making makes me want to find that project and finish it.

    I am enjoying watching your and Karen's progress on this quilt. I like your idea of adding your initials and the year to the heart block.

    Lori, your "Mother" block is wonderfully Prim. I love the special wording and sweet embroidery. You and Karen will each have a beautiful family heirloom to treasure.
