Block-- No. 02
[6"]
and look👀👀👀↧↧↧↧↧↧↧--just for laughs;)))
I first had it sewn together like this↡↡↡↡:
So I played leapfrog--
and de-stitched....and re-sewed.....
It is still not perfect, but it's done....
Dawn at Relaxing Robin had suggested, last Wednesday,
that we grab a quilting book, any one we'd like,
and choose "No 24-- 2 or 4" any block with those numbers
involved-- she's very flexible ;))))--- so no stressing out--
and make a block in a week for her SAL....
Since I am TRYing to learn how to improve my piecing...I chose
the Moda Blockheads Book for my SAL book--
it has been languishing on my bookshelf for quite a while now...
("Who's Afraid of the big bad BOOK?")
I have been practicing making hourglasses for "RSC February"
Go and visit Dawn and see what block she chose and how she did....

Great job girl! Love them....and I like your ohio star flying and not.
ReplyDeleteOoooo that may be another exercise. Make the block 2 different ways.see how different you can make them
Woohoo those turned out gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThat's a good way to put some of our books to good use! Your blocks look great--even if they are sometimes a little flighty!
ReplyDeletelove that block
ReplyDeleteI liked the block you goofed up! It looked good! Your real block looks great!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, geometry - one of the mysteries of math class in school. That, and algebra were my downfall. I want to live in a world where 1+1=2. I like both your blocks and think they'd work perfectly together in a quilt.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely colours you are using for this. I like their moody feel a lot.
ReplyDeleteI like the subtle background fabrics. That change adds so much to a simple block.
ReplyDeleteI think Dawn's SAL 24 sounds fun. Use a book for block ideas, choosing page 24 or 42 or 2 or 4, as you wish. Once a week and post about it.
ReplyDeleteDid I get that right?
I've started already.
Good plan, I like this idea, the only trouble for me, is that I already have at least a dozen to finishg my own SAL's. Great fun, looking forward to your next block.
