Now all I have to do is sew them together, layer the quilt, quilt it, bind it, sew a label on it, wash it, and wrap it.
I have until Saturday. As in, four days from now. *sigh*
For this quarter of the 3x6 bee bellsbellsjo asked for blocks for an eye spy quilt for her son. I aimed not to repeat any of the prints I used and added some cool solids to keep the block from being too busy.
I made this block (and my test block) early and didn't realize until after I sent it that I had cut the white strips 1/2" too wide. Nonetheless I think it's a fun block.
The block is based on the technique in Oh Fransson's Mod Mosaic Floor Pillow.
I don't know the real name of this, It sits in front of a residence that has been converted into offices. I call it the block parent. You don't see them much anymore but homes used to have "Block House" signs in the windows so children would have safe havens in case they ran into trouble in the neighborhood. Driving by, today, with our spectacular sunshine, the light played on it beautifully. I will learn more in the future.
Milky Robot sent me these 4 fabrics. I have tried to fuzzy cut the fabric, in order for the deer to appear. Quite a taske as I had just enough fabric :)
Hope you like your block, Milky!
April block for Kelly - When we were little we would always get gingerale or 7up for an upset tummy. I hope this works for you :0
The bottle part of the block was made using the wonderful pattern fby Penny at SewTakeaHike. You can find the link here www.sewwequilt.com/2011/10/guest-50-penny-with-her-pop-bo...
finally got a block finished! I'm so behind now. 5 to do to catch up!!! I'm making 2 quilts so double the work load. but still fun! I took this pic at night time so the colours are a bit dark in the corner blocks. My birds are top left going clockwise: a tui., fantail, a kiwi, and a pukeko.
Small art project for class, 60 something wooden blocks arranged and painted to look like a mario block falling apart. Needs a few touch-ups here and there but its mostly done and im pretty happy with it.
