I got the book and read it a few days ago and was itching to start. I made 4 blocks that I really love just not all together. I sewed each of the blocks to another and I don't like it. I am thinking of make 4 small pieces with these blocks as the centers. Meanwhile, I will continue to work on strip sets in yellows, greens and oranges and see if inspiration strikes.
I can't believe this is the end product of an entire day.

Love the blocks. I, too, was surprised that it wasn't a bit faster to make them. I'm heading back down to the studio for some more work on my blocks today.
ReplyDeleteBeth, these are gorgeous!
