Mine was Tansie - don't ask me why, but mama called me that all the time!
My bee's Christmas swap blocks are now officially put together and ready for quilting!
I went with black for the outer border; didn't want red or green or gold or white -- or to think about it any longer!
As I mentioned, my guild is doing the All People Quilt UFO challenge, it's a good way to stir up those UFO's that are hanging around! I want to do some more work on my Baltimore Album quilt blocks, but before I can do them I need to make scrap yardage!
Working on yellows and blues right now...
a bunch of blues done; I might need to make more, not sure at this point
and yellows! a nice little pile of scrap yardage...
and next up - pink!
When I get some red and green and brown stockpiled I can start laying out more blocks. What flower designs will I use? I have no idea, I'm making this up as I go along!
That's it for now, sew forth and sew on til later...
I love your scrap yardage! So colorful.
ReplyDeleteLove your colors so far
ReplyDeleteOH how I love made fabric! It's one of my favorite things to do, and I usually do it just like you're doing.....monochromatically...blues, reds, greens, etc. I have seen made fabric done all 'helter skelter' color-wise, and I like it, but haven't had the guts to make any myself.....yet!
