This week's Sewcialites 2 block was another easy one, much to my relief. This is Fascinate by Sherri McConnell and it went together so well. The pattern showed the 4-patch sections done with 4 different colors, but I didn't do that. In the 6" batik version I did use 2 colors.
I keep playing with ideas for how to set these blocks together as we get close to the finish line. The only one I have a plan for so far is the 3" red/white blocks. And that is still a work in progress too.
I have decided that 4 of these blocks will become the centers of Friendship Star blocks. I had a fat quarter of a white with little red dots, so that is the background.
How those star blocks will be incorporated with the rest of this?? Still be be determined. But I have the pieces ready to add to the top and left sides to mirror the bottom and right side. That is one of my goals for this weekend.
Great idea to use the small blocks as star centers!
ReplyDeleteIt's so interesting to see how the block looks in different sizes. I like your red and white sampler setting idea.
