It is a Sunday, but also a Saturday as I get to stay home tomorrow in my pajamas and sew some more. Ah happy day!
So in celebration of an extra day at home, I sewed these blocks together. They were all done as part of RSC15, but needed to be sewn together. Maybe a nice wide border and a soft snugly flannel backing?
The extra blue pinwheels got a narrow white border before the extra blue spikes. I found a big piece of dark blue in the scrap bin, but it might be too dark. Maybe something lighter or brighter?
These are the rest of the geese from crumbs. I'd better do some math and figure out how long they should be. Perhaps a narrow white strip between each row of geese. I am thinking of an up down arrangement, maybe with a transition to look like the geese are flying around the corners? I'd better get out the graph paper and start some planning.
The stars look so sweet wandering around the blocks!
ReplyDeleteSo many blues working their way into quilts! Enjoy the extra sewing day tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of doing star blocks for RSC16, I already picked it for our quilt guild's BOM I think we're doing these in April.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a Happy Scrappy Sunday! Love your stars and quilts!
ReplyDeleteWhat a productive day!!
ReplyDeleteI like the star quilts so very much...I need to try this block. Other day I saw similar blocks that also called my attention, maybe I just need to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day off! You will have a few more quilts finished in no time!!
ReplyDeleteI know you will make good use of the extra day tomorrow! These blocks/quilts are inspiring! Someday I will get to sew again....
ReplyDeleteI love to read about all you manage to accomplish.
ReplyDeleteI love how those stars move around. That seems like just the thing to tickle a little person as they lay snuggled with that great quilt.
ReplyDeleteYou got heaps done. Love your stars. They are so happy.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful projects! Your sewing fingers were flying! Enjoy that extra day!
ReplyDeleteWell, they're both fabulous, but I especially love that top one. Very, very cute. What a great scrapbuster too!
ReplyDeleteI like the crumb geese as border for the pinwheel quilt. Both projects are coming together beautifully.
ReplyDeleteWow...you took great advantage of the extra day off! The spike border turned out perfect!
