SCCs tone on tone RR - Florence's block





This beautiful block is in the gentle apricot tones.



My work consists of the silk ribbon floral spray in rusty tones, the embroidered cable seam treatment, with a silk thread and bead spray between. I then worked the bullion daisy spray on top beside my laced silk ribbon seam treatment. The inner seam treatment beside the rusty spray is my finishing touch.



What a lovely block. They have each been gorgeous in their toning embellishments, it is hard to choose a favourite.



One more block to do before my own green block comes home.



This is a green block as well, and I have it here ready to be worked on.



Keep posted.

SCCs Tone on Tone RR Susan's block




This tone on tone block combined turquoise/pink tones.


I worked the double curved seam, using Colourstreams ophir silk thread for the bullion flowers and lacing. I used some turquoise dyed silk ribbon to do the rose spray.

Could only do a small piece of work so the remaining space could be left for the next person on the list.

I have just finished my bit on Patti's block of luxurious russets and brown toned block in this RR. By Tone on Tone, we are meant to stay with the colours of each block, with the embellishing. I have used various variegated silk threads for the seam treatments, adding the bronze beads and bronze SILF metallic thread for sparkle. The sheaf of wheat has been done with bullions in Colourstreams Ophir "Uluru". The SRE floral spray includes some "makubra" ribbon flowers in orangy tones, with my dyed silk flowers. Now it is off to New Zealand for Joy to work an area, before sending it on again. I've loved the challenge of this RR.
