do. Good Stitches June Blocks: They're based on Elizabeth's Kaleidoscope Blocks. I always wanted to try these blocks, so I was excited.
Skill Builder: got the last 2 blocks done (blogged about here), and I also got the second quilt back done and it's all layered and ready to be quilted.
My favorite block of the week was probably the Hexie Flower:
I also still need a couple of people for the Purple Charm quilt, Chain Letter-ish thing. :) You send out 14 total 5" charms and the hope is that you get 72 charms in the mail. The only requirement is that the charms have some purple in them somewhere. If you're interested leave a comment or email me. For full details go here. You know you want to do it! Tee hee.

Wow. I'm impressed!! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat kaleidoscope block is not as easy as it appears, is it? LOL! I've got one on my design *floor* right now. After about a dozen blocks, I think I got it figured out. Only had to toss one really bad, unfixable one. If you're using a paper template, check it often for true size!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to check my purple stash (not home right now), not sure if I have anything you wouldn't barf over!
Those points on those blocks are always tricky. I've messed them up a lot.
ReplyDeleteYou must be in the Do. Good bee with my friend Erica, because your blocks look a lot like the ones she posted not too long ago!
ReplyDeleteI would be interested in the purple charm swap whatever-you-call-it :) Purple is my moms favorite color and I have been wanting to make her something. However, I don't have any purple in my stash. This would be a good way to get some!
The kaleidoscope blocks look lovely!
ReplyDeleteThe colours in your kaleidoscope blocks are so pretty. Even if the points don't line up perfectly on the one... you've tried something new.
ReplyDeletebusy busy.....I love the skill builder and your babies....
ReplyDeleteYour blocks look great! I think half of my kaleidoscope blocks don't line up perfectly in my quilt, but that's okay, I decided not to care otherwise I would never have finished it :)
