So this is what I have been working on. Six squares 14 x 14 inches each White sashing in between. I really wanted the color to pop that is why the white worked out so well. I used mostly fabrics from my scrap bin, and the white I bought at Joann's fabrics. It's a quilters only cotton at 4.99 a yard. Great price so I had to try it very close to Kona solids in texture.
A few of you have asked for a tutorial, and even though these blocks were free hand; I am sure I can whip up something for you all to be able to follow and make your own. Stay Tuned
Me and Sophia have been learning colors, her favorite seems to be red and purple at the moment.
I was able to get a new product finished for the shop as well. Much different from the original plan, but I love it just the same. I call it the Sketcher Wallet.
I will officially feature it soon on my blog, but for now here is a sneak peak since I only have a few listed as of yet.
Alright I better get back to work now. I have a few wholesale orders to finish and a couple birthday parties, so hopefully I can get back to that quilt soon.
So if there is enough interest in the tutorial for the wonky block I will be happy to make one for all of you. Just let me know. Happy sewing everyone.
I would be really interested in a tutorial for the quilt blocks if you have the time!!! I love the sketcher wallet you made - great idea!!!
