Here are four California poppy blocks for August. Fun and easy to put together. Thanks to Julie for this month’s pattern. This month I am donating my blocks. I was fortunate to win last month and will be working to get that top together as soon as final blocks arrive! Sincerely, Su Quilting in...

Three blocks for August

Posted by Kate North on August 26, 2018 in blocks | Comments Off on Three blocks for August

I had a harder time with fabrics for this block than I thought I might – apparently I don’t have many bluey greens. This one is far greener than it looks in the photo, though. I’m hoping that some of my reds & oranges are ok, even though they have quite a bit of other colour in them – if not, please let me know and I’ll withdraw them. Actually, I’m donating them to the pot anyway, so I don’t suppose it...

A California Poppies block

Hi, Everyone! I made myself get my Red Forest blocks mailed off to Su in Michigan before starting one of these bright California Poppies blocks. I was glad to see that she received them. However, I was afraid I wouldn’t get anything made this month, as I had an unusually busy August. However, I got a few quiet hours today to do as I wished, and here it is! I don’t know if I’ll get any more made, but I guess I have a few more days, don’t...

Flaw in Stash Discovered

Busy month here and I almost didn’t find time to make the Poppy Field blocks. What a great idea for a quilt. Today was a sewing day and I enjoyed digging through my scrap baskets. Oranges and yellows abounded, but there were almost no blue toned greens. It is true, I have finished two green themed quilts in the last 12 months, but there is still a huge pile of greens in the cupboard. Strangely, all are in the yellow-green family, obviously a preference I didn’t realize. Below are my two blocks for donation. I will be back in the...

Here are two from me this month… Fun to make and they are pretty. The blocks are green where they should be just a bad pix.

My Red Forest blocks are in the envelopes (and that’s what seems to take the most time!), will take them to the post office in the morning. Will take to 4 weeks to reach Su and Sharon. Karen N in Cape Town (at the bottom of Africa!)
