My newly named Sorrento Squares has become a quilt top,
and I have decided decorate the corners. The applique design is from a free Kim Diehl project called "Walk in the Park". Still a few berries to add.
Trying to finish this one for our quilt show on November 10th. Will I make the deadline? Time will tell, but I will keep working until there is no hope.
The hand quilting of my Lori Smith quilt is proceeding slowly and
one hexagon panel is finished.
Moving slowly but in the right direction.
