This block is called Twice as Nice. Sorry not a great picture, of course when I went to take a pic it was cloudy and rainy. The black on white was the guild fabric, I was supposed to add a cool, bright fabric.
I had to look up what a cool bright color was. Thank goodness for Google.
I also got my bag lady block done.
Once that was done I contemplated....what to do?
I decided it was time to do another one of Jeff's shirts.
Three inch shoo fly blocks.
I am still in search for a buttery yellow reproduction fabric for my saw toothed square block, so I keep accumulating, but not being very successful. I also wanted a couple of more neutral blocks.
Since the color for the month of September is orange, I started looking for a few.
More orange and yes--Chicken fabric. I also needed some neutrals and the strip pack with 24 strips for $12 fit the bill.
I love Lecien fabrics, especially the soft colors. I saw this line called LaConner and I knew I needed to make a quilt out of the fabric.
There was even a free pattern, which fit the bill, so all the fabric to make the quilt is here.
Finally I have class this Saturday for the Quiltworx quilt.
I got all of my pieces done. I think we are getting close to final construction. Can't wait. Only 3 more classes until the final reveal.
looks like you got a lot done. cant wait to see your quiltworx quilt.
ReplyDeleteLooks like progress :) Be careful with that strip set and measure before using, I bought a charm pack of that brand and found them to be 4 3/4" not 5"...a problem when the whole point to buying them was to use them as 5"!!
ReplyDeleteYou got me beat. I did one block...giggle. Love those oranges. I always seem to be short on oranges and yellows.
ReplyDeletei love all lecien fabric
ReplyDeleteHave fun at class. I have a quilt retreat this weekend.
ReplyDeleteJeff's block looks fantastic as does that Quiltworx section. That is going to be gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI'm a great fan of Lecien fabrics too.
Gosh, only 3 more classes - can't wait to see what it finally looks like. Lecien fabric is always lovely. You have chosen a very pretty bundle. Jeff's next t-shirt blocks looks great.
ReplyDeleteWow! Your blocks all look great. I love the border you used on Jeff's John Deere block. Someday, I hope to be able to match points half as well.
