Here are the blocks I got done over the last week.
Thousands of Diamonds D Pg. 91 and Victuals D Pg.53
March To Winter Quarters LL Pg. 33
On thing I decided on was the sashing for my quilts. At least one of them anyway. I found a lovely color called Civil War Natural to use. I'm still deciding on the corner stones and the border, but see what you think?
If I had used this for all the background and light sections, it may have looked a bit dull and dark, but I'm using much lighter creme and shirting, so the blocks still pop against the darker sashing...or so I think.
H1 Peek-A-Boo...another Dear Jane block. Very simple one and easy to do with lots of color pop! If you want to see how easy it was to construct, follow the Flickr mosaic to the Dear Jane Misc. group and follow the instructions. It really wasn't hard at all and easy to assemble on your own.
Judy those blocks are just awesome and I really like that sashing choice. You're right...the blocks really pop.
ReplyDeleteLove your blocks!! Wonderful colors and I like your background. I am sorry for your hands hurting, dang it anyway!
ReplyDeleteThat sashing is absolutely perfect for the blocks.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your choice for the sashing.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry the hands are hurting. the sashing looks wonderful. Makes the blocks pop. I finally broke down and got the CW books...another project!
ReplyDeleteThe sashing is going to be just the right touch for these blocks. It shows them off nicely.
ReplyDeleteOh baby do I love those blocks you did. And I LOVE that fabric for the sashing! Where did you find it? It is awesome!
