for my Circuit Blocks. I made a heap of blocks from the book, and another heap of blocks from other sources, that fit the style. Nine of the blocks I made into one class sample, and another nine I made into another sample. My plan, when the classes were done, was to pull apart the samples, add the other other blocks and make it into a 30 block quilt. Good plan, eh? I did not recon on Julie M (yes I do know you drop in here from time to time). I laid all the blocks out and she insisted that I actually need to 36 blocks in total as it needed to be a square quilt.
I guess I really knew it would look better as a square quilt, but I had this feeling that I had finished the applique, and wanted to move on. No, not until I had made 5 more blocks.
these are all the blocks that did not make it into the sample, just waiting to be put together.
So far this week I have made two blocks. My plan is to have 4 of the left hand block, which is called "Cornerstone Block" in the book, and put one in each corner. So I have 2 more of these to make in different colour combos, and one more which is going to be another wreath. Then I think I will be done - but I think I will check with Julie first :-)
We went to the Central Market for lunch today, so I don't have to cook dinner. On my menu is mango and icecream. yum - the best thing about summer.
Aah - so the student becomes the teacher!!! You know I am right - you just needed someone to tell you! LOL Julie
ReplyDeleteThis is going to be amazing. Interesting how some of these blocks could fit right into the BTCT.
