I made a couple more blocks yesterday after running some errands. I have lots more short strips, the size in the small blocks, in the scrap bag so I'll continue making the small blocks in spare moments. I'm thinking of a medallion style quilt at this point.
I searched through my oldest Kaffe fabrics and came up with two more light fabrics. I have one more in the basement. Now I need to find a few more dark fabrics and get them pressed and cut. I haven't turned on an iron yet so I can't start sewing the pinwheel blocks yet.
While out running errands yesterday I found a miniature Chrysanthemum plant for $1. I briefly considered buying 3 of them and replanting one of my porch pots. Then I came to my senses and just bought one for my kitchen.
Hahaha--it's hard to turn down such a pretty plant bargain;))) What a cheery color...
ReplyDeleteI love your little scrappy square blocks;)))
65 here--still warmish overnight these days...
I began a new little scroll and readied a table runner for some hand quilting...baby steps. hugs Julierose
Awww I'm glad you adopted that little mum - it's pretty and happy there in your kitchen. Nice tomatoes too. Love the scrappy blocks!
ReplyDeleteI love mums...yours is too sweet!

Those scrappy blocks are so fun! The light leaf print is so pretty! That was a bargain for only $1.00! I hope it lasts a long time for you.
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun array of your blocks and just stitching on them when you have a moment or two, each one has such a vibrant impact. ~ I know I’m going to love your blues and you haven’t even stitched on one yet. And to bring in a such a cheerful little mum plant just for your window sill… was a happy way to end your day .
ReplyDeleteThere ya go, something bright to work on between the blues!
ReplyDeleteLove those bright blocks! And the light/dark blues are gorgeous. I had the same “come to my senses” moment earlier today with baby mums for under $5 — despite the temptation, they are all still at the store.
ReplyDeleteThose are super cool blocks!
