Snow Days - February Reveal

It is FIRST reveal day for our 2013 project - Snow Days by Crabapple Hill.

It is very hard to get a good picture of this quilt. There is a LOT of embroidery on it. 

The first assignment was to work on the churn dash blocks. In total - they had to make TWO 12" blocks, FIVE 9" blocks and SIX 6" blocks.

Here are all MY blocks (including a piece of embroidery which I will show you later)

There are a LOT of blocks to show so each person put up ONE of each of the three sizes. Sit back and enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   And if you think Churn Dashes are BORING - well - think again!!!!!!
