Hello All
I just wanted to update you on the progress of the Ugly Block.This is the result of about 8 hours of work. Maybe another 20 and it might be presentable!
The gold and orange lace that you see are ones that I dyed with this project in mind. They are pretty intense in color. I am happy with the way the crow turned out, I just did him freehand as I went. I have some bright orange flowers with yellow centers to cover the white polka dots.
The SRE in the corner needs a little more filling out I think.
Next up some button flowers around the rooster and lots of beads and seam embellishments.
Back to the grind
Later,
Lauri

Great job! It's looking good!
I just love your crow and cornfield! I can't believe you didn't have the crow planned out stitch by stitch. The whole block looks so much better than before. This is actually going to be a great block when you are finished. Love the rooster in the floral part - wish I had one just like him, for the same fabric. LOL! I have a plan, though. =)
Awesome job! I love the 'ugly' block. I can't wait to see them all together!

The ugly block already looks wonderful like this Lauri! I love the little crow and the chicken and
the colors you added to it!
Wow! I love the little crow in the cornfield! He's so...Kansas! You really gave him a lot of character for his size. The Rooster and SRE flowers are beautiful, too. You're definitely winning in your battle with this block.
This ugly duckling turns slowly into a swan LOL
Great JOB Lauri.
I think you are doing a great job! Can't wait to see when you are finished.
I'm loving all the so-called "ugly" blocks -- all of you are doing great jobs with these. Is the rooster appliqued on?
