Following a lead

Cheryl wanted nothing cutesy and opted for glitz and encrusted which is easy for me. I love following a stitcher who gives me inspiration and this Xmas DYB round robin I'm following Maire. On Cheryl's block Maire placed her main motif, a wreath, off-center in the corner. So I used the circle shape and also placed my main motif off center to follow Maire's lead. Repeating shapes and elements give a continuity to the blocks which I like.

  1. Both of you did some wonderful and creative work. I really love that beautiful wreath Gerry, and you are right...repetition helps harmonize designs a lot, so I am happy with the continuity of the blocks as well as the creativity. Thanks!
