i found some more blocks that were going to be a quilt that got shoved to the side (for at least two years). and because of the fabric in the block there is NO WAY i could let them go to waste. :) this is my ALL TIME FAVORITE fabric. i just LOVE this red polka dot!!! i was going to make a quilt i had done in the past with these but apparently i only made 8 of these block instead of the 12 i needed, so i improvised. it was fun trying to figure it out.
i got to use up the last big portions of this joann star fabric that i have in about every red quilt i've made. which has be A LOT. sad to see it go but it's been a good friend. i of course still have some scraps just not yardage.
and here is the final product. :) it was fun to challenge myself with some triangles. i think i realized i really do like these stars and blocks together. hope you have a good day. i'm off to tournaments all day!

That's the benefit of being 6 hours ahead... We're just home from an all-day tournament :) I really like your quilt. It's lovely.
ReplyDeleteLove the look of this quilt - the red and white with touch of taupe is gorgeous. Kind of reminds me of redwork :-)
ReplyDeleteHow clever. Love it and love to see you using up long lost blocks with fave fabric....always nice!
ReplyDeleteI am really loving your ideas for putting different ideas together! It's all very inspiring...
ReplyDeleteYou are right, polka dots (especially red and white) are always happy. Nice job on the red and white blocks.
