Craftsy Block of the Month 2013 with Laura Nownes »

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Casual


What are you most proud of?

My color combinations make me giddy! And I chose to add a strip of hammered satin (its hard to see in the photo, its silver and the middle of my strips) and I think it adds something special to the block.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I don't know what I did wrong on these, but I didn't get them to come out the correct size. My strips sewn together were only 5" rather than 5.5" But overall I think I figured out how to put them together. And I love the finished look!

My lighting was really bad for the photos, but you get the idea of what they look like.

I too, love that giddy feeling you get when you put your fabric pieces together, and your block looks better than you expected! Great job on your block!

Thanks a bunch! That feeling is one of the reason I have grown to love quilting so much.
