So I didn't get a whole lot of sewing done over the Holiday. Ya know, it's all about family while the kids are out of school. But now they are back, and I have been sewing up a scrappy storm :) Remember that stack of Rainbow Petals I shared before Christmas . . .
And how I was going to start sewing them all in 2022 . . . Well, 6 day's in and I have a stack of Scrappy Prairie Star Blocks and I just love them!!! The notches that are cut with the AccuQuilt GO! Prairie Star BOB Die really made lining up everything super easy so the piecing went really fast. And see those white background pieces, they are totally put in with Y seams!!! I was a little nervous at first, but after a few it was like, ya, what was I so nervous about ;) And they look so awesome and I love that this traditional block is put together in the traditional way!!! I can't wait to share it all finished :)
And I will admit, I was so excited about cutting out all of those rainbow petals and seeing them in pretty stacks . . . that over the break, I decided to try another "to make someday" quilt :) My blue scraps were out of control, like totally spilling out of the bucket! So I sorted through and paired them with some great brown scraps because I love that color combo for an "all boy" feel. Can you tell what Classic Quilt Block I made from this little sneak peek?? Click here for a big hint, tee hee hee.
I love your quilts, projects! You have provided inspiration for 2 that I’ve made recently!
