Happy April 1st!
This is a project I am hoping to finish this year, my top is sewn but I am spacing out my block reveal to follow along with the sew-along. I am hoping to get my top sandwiched and quilted soon. I am sewing along with the Shenandoah Valley Botanical Quilt project - the pattern is provided by the Virginia Quilt Museum and all pattern sales benefit the museum. Dawn, from Collector with a Needle, and Doreen, from Aunt Reen’s Place, are hosting a quiltalong for this quilt, here.
This is my version of the block chosen for April, Rose of Sharon:
This block had lots of tiny bits, I love the Rose of Sharon plant and we are blessed with a large "hedge" of them bordering our garage. I looked for a photo to show but came up empty - I will have to wait until this summer :)

I love your version of this quilt block!
I admire your patience and attention to detail.
There are so many tiny pieces cut and stitched into these small blocks of yours. So delicate and beautiful!
So pretty. I don't believe I've ever seen that flower in 'real life'
Oh love your block. I had never seen a rose of sharon until I moved here. Recently we had an offer from the Arbor Day foundation for a donation they would send us 6 Rose of Sharon. Jeff wanted me to buy them to replace our ancient Lilacs along the road.
Very pretty!
Such a sweet block!! Love the Rose of Sharon bushes - you have a whole hedge - must look awesome!!
Very pretty block. I love seeing everyone's variations each month.
The petals are so delicate. This is such a pretty block, Kris! I love it :)
