So far I'm having some fun imagining how this red and white quilt will end up looking.
The schoolhouse and the diamond-stars were the beginning of my Stay At Home Round Robin (SAHRR) from 2022. We started with a block and then got challenge clues to add things each week. I did the diamonds the second week, and then hit a wall with it. Each week I tried to add something - like the heart above the chimney - but it just wasn't looking good. So it became a UFO, folded up in a project box along with some red scraps.
And then along came the Sewcialites 2 sew-along in 2023, and I decided to do 3" blocks in red and white. Somewhere along the way I remembered the schoolhouse project, and now it's getting some new life. I'm not at all sure how this will play out but at least it's back on the design wall.
I like how this quilt is looking so far. Your redwork quilt will be interesting with the variety of blocks. I like that you have background around the blocks, it's not busy. Happy stitching!
ReplyDeleteIt’s challenging to design as you go, but I like where this one is headed. Enjoy!
