The Princess and the Pea

Some people are very sensitive about almost everything and some aren't. Sometimes it is a good thing and sometimes not. As you know - the real princess was so sensitive that she could feel a tiny pea even if it laid under numerous of cushions. It was difficult for the princess to get to sleep but after a night with a little sleep she got an enormous prize: the Prince Charming asked her hand <3
Now I have finished all nine blocks of Once Upon a Time quilt. I feel a little plaintive because I have enjoed so much to stitch these. Before I can put blocks together I have to do some shopping. In the sashings I want to use the same fabric which I have used in backround of stitching. But I haven't it enough - I hope I'll still find it.

I'm glad you had fun with these. I liked watching them come together and hopefully you can find the same fabric to finish it...

Hi
Thank you for visiting my blog, and congratulations on finishing your blocks. It`s quite strange that when a quilt is nearly finished,you get this sad feeling, because you`ve had such great time while making it...
I felt the this way with my AAS.(An Angels Story). It took me a long time to figure out what colours to use.I ended up buying a fat quarter bundle, with fabrics from Benartex by Nancy Halvorsen. I was amazed to find many matching fabrics in my stash. Good luck with your lovely quilt, and if you are thinking about making an Angels Story...well..you would enjoy it. ;O) Take care.

Oh you are so talented! I dream of one day learning how to quilt... and your stitchery is amazing! I love to embroider and the images you have use are very sweet.
I shall return soon for more eye candy :)
