I was finally able to spend some time playing in my sewing room yesterday. Now that the Farmhouse Stars top is done I allowed myself to work on a couple of things. I added borders to a recently past Saturday Sampler, and I made my 2 blocks for the current Saturday Sampler.
Each month we're doing 2 variations of a block. I've chosen to use my stash of black and whites and my stash of bright batiks. This month I pulled a couple of purples from the batik drawer. And I'm choosing to make mine a light/dark variation. One block will have more white and the other block will have more black.
When lining them up together, I do notice that the black print I used this month reads a bit more grey than the previous ones. But that's OK. This will be a scrappy project. And now that I see them all together, I'm thinking that next month needs to have orange in it.
It's going to be a cute quilt that someone would love to get:)
ReplyDeleteSuch fun blocks and fabrics! And, yes!!! Orange will just sing with these other colors.
ReplyDeleteYour blocks look great together. You have a nice variety of fabrics and colors so far.
ReplyDeleteLoved the photo of Grandpa reading to the kids...priceless times.
ReplyDeletePerfect blocks as always.
Continued happy Stitching in 2018!
