(1) Monday mornings
(2) cell phones
(3) polka dots
Honker and Dinger are excited about their colors all together in a quilt - with a French name, no less: En Provence, ooh la la!
Can you tell they're happy?
Me too, it's a gorgeous quilt, full of happy scrappy fabrics and the smell of sunshine!
When step 7 was posted and the finished quilt was revealed, I wanted to jump right in and start sewing my blocks together!
After finishing step 6, it was easy enough to cut the 3-1/2" yellow squares in step 7 using my GO die - piece 'o cake!
I tossed in all the yellows that wanted to come along.
So, now I'm piecing the main blocks, but also piecing the green/yellow/neutral units as leader/enders.
Ooops, what's wrong with this picture?
I did this twice - slow down!
The blocks sew up easily and I'm loving the way they look all sewn together!
I made two so far, I haven't sewn any of the sashing units yet.
Looking good!
Thanks for stopping by, now go on over to the En Provence linky at Quiltville and see what everybody else has done for steps 6 and 7!
Enjoy your Monday, sew forth and sew on til later
Did you use any other Accuquilt dies in this mystery? And if so, how did that work out. I tried using the Triangle in a Square die (3" finished), but I couldn't get it to come out the right width, so I was hesitant to buy the Quarter Square die for fear I would have the same trouble.
ReplyDeleteYour monkey peaking around the corner is adorable! Great blocks and fabrics!
ReplyDeleteHurray for the monkey!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are beautiful! And I'm so impressed with how much you've already got done! (I've still got miles and miles of bits to sew together...)
Love the monkey! Polka dots make me happy, too.
ReplyDeleteOh, I did that same mistake in sewing the hourglass blocks! My seam ripper got quite a workout!
ReplyDeleteCute little monkey! I don't think I have used my seam ripper as much as on the EnProvence project! LOL
ReplyDeleteWhat fun fabrics you have in your project!
