Wish You Well - Block 9

Here's the 9th 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).​ Each month you're sent an email with a PDF download with the pattern instructions, colour picture of the completed block and a full size traceable stitchery design. You also get a bonus project each month. 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...

...the stitchery has been hand embroidered using a selection of DMC, Cosmo and Valdani embroidery threads. One of the appliqued circles has been made with the embroidered part of a linen napkin - I'd already used part of this naoki in a previous block. As you can see, I've also used some vintage lace trimming on this block too. Only 3 more blocks to make, then these can all be pieced together!
