Monday Making


I'll join BETH with a little bit of 'making' today.  I pulled my two totes of CW fabrics that I am trying to work down a lot more before adding some fresh to them.


I had forgotten about Temecula Quilt Co little 1880 Sampler QAL and need to catch up on the blocks - four of them are out now.  They are 4.5" unfinished size - quick little blocks.


That should give me time to also play with some strattas.  Rather than cut a lot of 1.5" strips, I pulled my string tote out and finding lots to play with.  These will be sub-cut into 1.5" pieces for making 16-patches.  I could have just as easily pulled my barrel of 1.5" squares for these, but my strings really need taming and I don't feel like making string blocks - yet.

Pull some scraps today and play,
Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

Love your basket block. I've been collecting thee patterns but haven't made any yet. I must get started. You are motivating me!

I've been saving the Temecula patterns, too - I need to get going with a block or two. That basket looks like an excellent place to start.

The colors you used for the basket block look great together.

Your sampler block turned out wonderfully. You've really been working on those scrap totes this last week.
