BOM and RPL

I got all the applique pieces ready for January's Granny's Hankie BOM.

They are all ready to be stitched down. I am going to machine applique them using the freezer paper method.
I had forgotten how much easier it is to use batiks for this style of applique than regular fabric. Plus the block is 16" so the applique pieces are nice and large. It is going to be a fun BOM.
The pattern for this will only be up until the second Saturday in February - when the February block pattern is posted.


My only concern is that the dark green blends into the background too much (it looks a bit better in real life than the picture).

I have been working on the Romanian Point Lace table center (some people were surprised when they saw it that it was bigger than they thought, that is why my hand is in the pictures).

This is the last leaf (the leaves were the hardest to stitch and the ones I hope will look good on the front),

And the last spider web!!
Just a small section left to stitch on a project that I thought would never end!!!
