Longing for Summer a piece for Calico

Hi everyone, thanks for dropping in. It's been a bit quiet here, and today again there is just a sneak peek.

I am sorry I have not been around much in blogland, but my day job is keeping me rather busy at the moment, so my apols for lack of comments......
Anyway, here is the preview of the piece that is on the Calico Blog today. If you have the time I would love it if you took a peep.

Thank you for being here just now and have a super week!

    Such a wonderful piece Astrid. You're right the paint inside the corner embellishment does look like glass. Fantastic background.
