My block for Sendai Project finished

My block is on its way...I completed this little block for our dear quilter friend Hideko whose country, hometown had a tragic earthquake in Japan. Our another friend, Leslie Ehrlich is organizer of a special project "Our Hearts and Hands for Sendai". special thanks her for her efforts to realise this important project. I wish I could make this block for another reason but I'm glad that our dear friend Hideko is well and safe. I always keep Japan people in my prayers who survived from big disaster and for all those innocent people who lost their lives due to big quake and horrible tsunami.

I tried to use flowers and lots of beads on my block, I wanted to use bright colors as the reminder of the spring...spring brings new hopes, new expectations....

I used contrast colors in a harmony. My beaded needle laces looked so neat on the hand dyed fabric.

I used different types of oyas...

I'm not much familiar to Brazilian Embrodiery but recently I bought nice special threads for that purpose, using those treads I did Bullion stitches and french knots on top the bugles intead of using beads as I used to do.

As my buddies all know, I like heavily embellished blocks, this is another heavily embellished block that I made for an important project. I added my sincere feelings, all positive energy to create it.

Blessings to all.....
