Phew, after 2 long months we’ve finally made it to the end of Laura’s brain child, the Travellin’ Pic Stitch Blog Hop. Amazingly, I have also managed to finish my contribution (ha, bet you were beginning to think I wasn’t playing, right? Well all I can say is that some of us were driving 2,700 miles while others sat and stitched ;o) )
Presenting Arches National Park:
Yes, I know, not an arch in sight, but I really wanted a mix of colours and the arch ones were pretty much only orange and blue! I pulled fabrics for this from several of our fabric sponsors:
And:
Along with the Spring Carnival pattern from Katy:
All done with hop sponsors:
And
I’m having visions of doing a 4 seasons type approach to this on a cushion (with this one being autumn), with one of these units per season in a quarter of the cushion cover, I just need to find the time and fabrics to do the other 3 and applique them on ;o) I might have to find more of those ellies too, so cute!
And since the end is nigh, it’s time for you to link up your projects to win one of the fabulous prizes on offer. Thanks to all of our sponsors, the ones listed above plus:
They generously provided both materials to work with and these wonderful prizes to send out!
So how do you win any of the above? You need to link up to the appropriate linky party below for your region. This is super-important because there is an Aurifil pack for each of the 3 areas, and if you get it wrong, you’ll be out of the running, okay? ;o)
Thank you to everyone that joined in, we hope you had fun :o) Don’t forget to come back on the 6th December to vote!

Love the four seasons pillow idea!
Great block. Those elephants are too cute. Didn't notice them at first 🙂
Thanks to both of you for thinking this up and organising it. I've thoroughly enjoyed reading everyone's posts and seeing their blocks. I think I've visited every one!
I love the block and the elephants!
So tell me darling girl….how was driving on the wrong side of the road for 2700 miles? tee hee
Love your block Katy – I'm bummed I didn't have time to join in and make something. There have been loads of great posts on the hop though!
I am in love with your seasonal carnival idea! Cannot wait to see 🙂
Beautiful block and I love the seasons idea! Thanks for such a great hop!
I must chime in and say I like your autumn piecing and the idea of a four seasons pillow. I'm waaaay to late to join in on this, bur I am going to visit Paper Pieces and see what trouble I can get in to there. 🙂
Very nice! FINALLY….

Congrats on such an original blog hop – wish I had made or found tie to join in.
Well done everyone who contributed, some super makes.
I love your colors! Will you be using pics from around the world for your other three seasons?
Your block and colours are lovely! Thank you for organizing the blog hop and prizes and all.
Love the block and the photo, even if it is missing some arches. I really like the 4 seasons idea for the cushion too.
