First July Finish

I added a butterfly and spider to the mix of hand embroidery critters.


Next I cut 1 1/2 inch strips to sew between each block. I wanted to have the blocks appear of center so I trimmed them with each insect and arachnid a little to the top, bottom or side of the blocks plus sewing the strips at the beginning of one block and at the ends of the other two.  Was that confusing or what??? 

Finally, here's the results and I love it!!
It measures 22 1/2" by 32 1/2" inches.
