Boy oh boy!! Summer is winding down, the
housesitting gigs are almost finished up for the summer....the weather will be cooling down soon....
WHOOP WHOOP! Its time to sew!! My sewjo has
been lacking, probably because I have been so tired..
I was behind on all my monthly swaps and committments & Rainbow Scrap Challenge Blocks but now I am almost caught up....YIPPEE!!
Here's my "Breaking Out Geese" block for August....I went with a black, gray, brownish color scheme
I like how it turned out, very masculine...
and here is my Wonky Star block...
I just love the Elephant block and the block with
the watches all over it...super cool!
Theres the first two blocks for this month..
Both of these blocks were made from
pieces from the black/gray scrap bin
so thats good that they were all put to use, I got rid of
few little pieces!!
Of course there is more where this came
from, oh lord help me...will I ever use all the fabric
that I have?
Linking up with Angela over at
SoScrappy for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge!
Oh! Those dark blocks would make for a lovely quilt all on their own. Nice work!!
ReplyDeleteStunning blocks. Feels good to catch up, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteLovely blocks. One of these days I want to make flying geese blocks.
ReplyDeleteGreat dark fabrics. So glad you are finding time to sew again.
ReplyDeleteThose black blocks are super cool and make the star really shine. You are lucky to have so many nice blacks and grays. By the way, my RSC15 post at place 12 works fine. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteVery handsome geese block. I also love the elephant! Hurray for sewing mojo!
ReplyDeleteThe geese and the star block are wonderful in your dark colour combinations. You have some very interesting fabric bits in each.
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks. Very classy geese block. Beautiful prints.
ReplyDeleteI like the fabrics in that wonky star too! They will be such fun in the finished quilt...lots to look at up close...just the way I like quilts...fun, fun, fun!
ReplyDeleteI like them both.
