I promised myself I would catch up on my CraftMad Quilt Block swaps - you see I have fallen way behind :( thankfully, Mandy and Merry are very understanding.
We have started a new colour choice for our blocks this year - dusky greens, blues and yellows.
At first, I had a real problem deciding on my colour choices, then I stumbled on some fabrics from Cynthia's Ark - Daisies in the Wind - and ordered 1/2 metre of each. Here are the blocks I have made
First block for the year was a Card Trick
this is what I have received
then a Friendship Star
now a Rail Fence
I won't say here who gets what block ............. I want to leave something as a surprise for the recipients ;-)
I have ordered some more of this so that I can continue making our next blocks in the same colourway. I have spied that it is also available in a pink/purple ............ I can see another order some time soon ;-)
Thank you for visiting my blog today - I hope you have a good day.
Remember, any day doing something you love makes it a good day ;-)
Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.
Love the colours you have chosen. They look great together. Can't wait to see it all together.
ReplyDeleteThey look wonderful Cathy. Can't wait to see them in the flesh. The rail fence was so nice and easy to do. I think my favourite so far is card trick.
ReplyDeleteLovely fabrics chosen for your blocks.
ReplyDeleteI like the card trick pattern if that's the right word, and the fabrics are so nice.
ReplyDeleteYou finished a lot of blocks and the fabrics are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteI'll bet it felt good to do some catching up. All your blocks look great.
ReplyDeleteSee that's what FnwF is for... doing what you want. Great "catch up" work Cathy! :)
ReplyDeleteA great catchup for you! The blocks look great!
ReplyDeleteNice blocks for your catch up.
ReplyDeletePretty fabrics you are using.
Great catch up blocks. I love those fabrics you are using, especially the blue one.

ReplyDeleteYou got a lot done Cathy!!! I love FNWF as a way to 'catch up'....I need more FNWF during the month, I think!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteLove the colours of your blocks ...I wouldn't ordinarily choose them but I love them now you've shown me!
