An early moving gift - Block 6 of Shabby Roses!!!

Good afternoon ladies!
With only a few days left before we leave here, and then a 2 week break when I won't be blogging due to no internet whilst relocating, I thought I'd give you Block 6 of my Shabby Roses BOM a couple of days early!
Unexpected presents are always the nicest ones, don't you think? :-)

~~~ May I present REST... ~~~


This is my personal favourite block so far. I hope you like it!
The sentiment REST is such an important one. We can become so busy in our day to day lives that taking time out to rest and refresh may elude us, so as you stitch this block I hope you let that little word take hold in your heart, and you make time each day to let go of the world and take a few minutes to quietly sit back and...rest.

You can download the pattern for REST HERE.

NOTE: 'Rest' is now available to purchase as part of the blocks 4,5 & 6 set in my ETSY store.

Remember, I keep the free blocks up for a limited time, so blocks 4, 5 and 6 will only be available free until August 1st - which is when I will be sharing block 7.
Blocks 1,2 & 3 are available for purchase from my Etsy store.

Hugs
Jenny

Oh Jenny I love it! I think it's my favorite so far too - but I think that with every one of them. I'll be so glad when you're in your new home and can rest yourself. Oh dear, what am I going to do without my Jenny fix for two weeks!

Oh! Its SO lovely. I will bear in mind the word but me being a mother and housewife I'm afraid the summer vacations aren't the perfect time to put it into practice....

Thanks so much!

Dear Jenny, this new block is fantastic and represents perfectly my idea of "resting". For me resting is sitting on rocking chair, under a verandah, stitching, listening to sound af nature, looking at a fantastic view while my thoughts flies away (hope you understand what I'm trying to say...I don't have the dictionary with me).
Thank you very much for all these wonderful gifts.
Love,
Elisa
