Here's the fourth block of Wish You Well - it's the 2020 I Stitch Club design, which is a mystery block of the month, designed by the Australian designer Gail Pan Designs and is available from her website as a PDF download. This combines a mixture of hand embroidery and applique (you can use whatever method of applique you prefer). Gail uses a mix of vintage lace and doilies as trimmings, and I've added a piece of vintage lace to my block. I've used a GORGEOUS selection of fabrics for this project, that are from the Super Bloom collection by Edyta Sitar, which were purchased from Cross Patch an online shop based in Wales here in the UK. This block is the last one for the top row, although I'll probably wait until they're all done before I join the blocks together. Now I've finally caught up, I'll be waiting patiently for the pattern fir block 5 which will be released on 1st May. And I have one or two other stitching projects to keep me busy in the evenings after work!

I love the embroidery on the patterned fabric instead of a plain one.

Hi Veronica the background fabrics that I'm using for these blocks are really pretty aren't they!
