first off, what do you think about this color combo? i was watching a free episode of "why quilts matter" on alex/ricky "the quilt show" and saw an amish quilt in the background, maybe trip around the world, in this combo. i rushed to the stash and pulled these to photograph; that's cheddar on the bottom of course; i might have left out one, not sure, definitely food for thought. looks like a sunflower group to me! ***** on the right is my stack of red/cream northwind blocks. i've got 5 rows put together, this stack is another 5 rows, so only 4 more rows to make, total of 32 blocks. the completed flimsy is in sight! ***** i also spent some time quilting the lovers' links last night also. with another week until october, i might just get it all quilted by then. we're having a stretch of rainy/cool weather, so it's quite possible.
I am loving the red and cream. And I can definitely see sunflowers blooming out of the cheddar.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for posting your process on the red/cream flimsy. I have never put together any rows until I have everything done on making the blocks. I always want to do the layout of the whole thing before assembling rows. My blacktop driveway looks so bright when I'm doing layout! Not sure if you meant that all your blocks are done now.
ReplyDeleteI love that cheddar/green/brown combo--very fall-ish. Those are my kind of colors. Your Northwind blocks are really piling up--so close to the flimsy stage you can almost smell it! Looking good!
