This is my portion of "Fancy" by John Keats
Freckled nest-eggs thou shalt see
Hatching in the hawthorn-tree,
When the hen-bird's wing doth rest
Quiet on her mossy nest;
I did a little thread sketching on this one. It took a long time to find the motivation to make it, but I did savor daydreaming about this block. I'm excited to see what Marilyn does with these blocks. You can see some of the other Pastiche Bee creations here.

Love it! Your fabric choices are wonderful!
Wonderful block Melinda!
Utterly stunning!! I love the nest quilting too! Very clever
That is such an awesome nest! I love it, it's just beautiful!
That's downright amazing.
It is a real beauty Melinda, there is an energy between the curve of your stitching and the angles of the twigs in the nest
Love that Keats passage. What a beautiful block!!
i have no words - you have taken my breath away with your stunning block.
Great block, I could spend all day looking at it!!
Oh, I love the little crack!
Oh - so well done! Looks like you had the perfect fabrics lurking on your stash. I want to see the little bird that pops out of the egg.
This is such a lovely quilt block. I was wondering if you were able to provide a pattern or tutorial for it? I'd love to use it in a story quilt that I'm making for my mother-in-law :)
