Mother's Day - Aurifil Designer 2014

Aurifil's February designer is Amy Gibson. Her block is called 'Mother's Day', because... 

"it looks like a pretty flower arrangement- just the kind of sweetness I want to send to my mom, both on Mother’s Day and every day..." (quote from Aurifil's blog)

I didn't find Lapland girl's hat last month... and because we have had a real winter weather... we had to come up with something warm to her, that she would not get the flu during the photographing. We took photos on the snow ;o)

Because the Olympic games will start this week, I think the most proper accessory to her is this woolen knitted hat. What do you think of her style? Is she ready for the Olympics?

Like Amy, also I want to give flowers to my mother on Mother's Day and every day, so I chose plenty of red roses in her basket... of course with some sewing notions.

 

It seems, that some kind of theme - a red thread - is shaping up this year's Aurifil BOMs.

Do you find a possible theme?

Auts! Pins can be quite sharp...

HUOM! Kun ompelet kahden kolmion neliöitä tätä blokkia varten niin annetut mitat ovat todella tarkat! Ainakaan minulle ei jäänyt trimmattavaa Amyn mitoilla, kuten hän ohjeessa taitaa mainitakin Minä piirsin ommelviivat ja ompelin niiden sisäpuolelta, siltikään en trimmannut juuri mitään pois. Lisäksi blokistani tuli muutama milli liian pieni, 1/8" alle 12" x 12".

Happy first week of February!!!
