I finished my Block 3. So far I like this block the best, even though it wasn't especially easy to do. Continuing with my theme of adding indigo blue to my blocks I added four blueberry sprigs inside the wreath. I also shrunk the inner leaves so that the berries would fit.
I used skinny 1/8 inch bias strips for the cherries and blue berries, but my stems that attach the cherries to the wreath are thicker. If I had to do it again, I would have made them 1/8th inch also. I used freezer paper under the circular wreath rather than bias so that I would not have a join,
It turned out beautiful!
