Oops, this one should’ve been written and posted last week, but I lost track of time. Then we were away for the Easter weekend, and now I’m a day behind. It is Tuesday, right?
Anyhoo…
These are the latest set of my Colour Me Monday blocks…
And the colours…
I’m starting to bend the rules a little bit, as I am trying my hardest to ‘shop my stash’ for each block (with the exception of the background squares). I’m also trying not to repeat fabrics too much, but it’s bound to happen at some point.
It was orange in March for Focus Cutting Sewalong, one of my pattern matching blocks was not my best work, but it will go into the final quilt when I eventually put everything together.
One of the blocks has neon ink on it, and because I’m me, I’ve bought myself a UV torch to make the ink glow…
I managed to sneak in another Lucky Star quilt block. I’m currently re-reading a series that I’ve already made blocks for, so it’ll be a wee while until I get to make another block for this project.
I’ve been a bag making machine again. I made a Dean Winchester bag to go with my Castiel bag, and have plans to make a few more character bags.
Here they are side by side…
I’ve made another Aunties Two City Bag for my aunt for her birthday…
And I shrunk our Easiest Patchwork Holdall bag to make a mini version for my bestie’s little girl for her birthday (with some very accidental pattern matching) because she ‘stole’ the one I made for her…
My Round Robin bed runner is done…
I’m not the only one to completely finish their quilts before the theoretical Easter deadline. Zena’s finished her wildlife quilt…
And Sandra’s mini wallhanging (we all signed the block we made)…
Here’s something a little silly; I bought Mum a make-your-own Patrick Grant kit for Mother’s Day, here he is, complete with custom felt bow tie. He will be going on some adventures at some point soon…
The kit came from Fat Hen & Flo, and they also do an Esme version, which I will be getting for Mum at some point.
And lastly, here are a few of the results from a couple of our recent workshops. First up, the first blocks from my Curve Appeal workshop using Sewmotion’s papers and templates (my one’s top left)…
Finally we have Jane’s Aunties Two City Bag…
