I used a free foundation pieced sewing machine block from Quilters Cache. You can get the pattern free HERE.
I love the teeny tiny thread spool. Mine is a tad wonky...but it's so cute I don't care!
I hand embroidered my PR name with red #5 pearl cotton. Also slightly wonky. Ah, handwork.
Notice the ravelly edges? I probably should have embroidered BEFORE trimming down to the required 6.5". Whoops. I think there's still enough edge left to stitch to the sashing.
If you're a member of PR, you should join the fun! I think Deepika has roughly 40 blocks right now. The only requirements are that the finished block should be 6.5" square and they have to be postmarked by January 15.
