I was so happy to finish up my Stay at Home Round Robin project this week, and here it is hanging next to last year's quilt. Read more about it HERE.
My sewing room used to be our basement family room, so there's
a fireplace at one end. It has turned out to be a fun place to display
my little quilt projects!
After that I pulled out the green scraps and started working on a couple Split 9-Patch blocks. Working on the contrast between the green sections and the low volume sections was interesting. A few fabrics I found could potentially go in either!
Here's what I ended up with so far:
And the whole group - they're starting to look like a quilt! My goal is to make four in each month's color, so I need two more greens this month. I made the two red blocks back in December when I was playing with the Split 9 design, so I'll need two more of those eventually, too.
And in the happy mail department, I received this beautiful bundle of Batiks that was a prize from a giveaway on Sew Preeti Quilts' blog awhile back. Won't these be fun to play with?!
Thank you, Preeti!
