      Nice, is that free hand? (I like how the embroidered flower "finishes" the printed flower.)

      thanks!— yes, the entire block was embroidered free hand; even the bee! I'll post a shot of the block later today.

      Lovely. I love barkcloth and have some pieces in my stash, but don't know why I've never thought to make a cq block from any of it. It's a great idea for a totebag. All my stash is in storage right now, but when we get moved, I might have to dig into that box of barkcloth!

      This is great! I love the embroidery you've done on both the barkcloth and the denim patches. I also like that you repeated the same design on the denim. Gives the piece unity.
