White on White CQ Block

Today I wanted to try a third 8 inch block and I've been wanting to try white on white, so that's what I made. It was a lot easier for me this time. Things went a lot more smoothly, and I was able to add more lace! It's got lots of texture too. I really love this block! Hey Lillian! You recognize that bit of lace up at the top?! Thank you!
Here is another photo of my second block, I hope you all can see the colors of it better.

Both your blocks are beautiful. Looking forward to see how you decide to embellish them.

Hey Melissa! =)

Wow- you sure are churning out those CQ blocks, arent you? Which one will you decide to use for your class with Sharon? Decisions... decisions.....

Ah- and the lace looks lovely. That came from a wedding dress that I found in the thrift store for- you won't believe it- a buck. The whole bottom hem was lace like this and I have almost none left. =(

I think you have found your niche. Crazy Quilting with all of its various forms of embellishments definitely suits you well Melissa!

Your work is incredible!
