Starting my first "Stay at home Round Robin (SHARR)" experience!
If you want to join me, the rules are,
#1 go find a 12" block in your UFO pile to start with.
Mine is the star in the center.
The first round prompt is the "kings crown" block
or a block named for the first initial of your name.
I chose the "kings crown" there are 4 variations, (see here,
to choose from, I chose to make one big block around my center block instead of maybe using the
"Kings Crown" block as corners, a companion block, or a surround.
"Kings Crown" block as corners, a companion block, or a surround.
How else would you use this block in a quilt?
January's color was Pink, did you know Pink is not a color in the rainbow?
First set are the 9-patch stars, made with 2 1/2 squares in a 6" block.
they are a little hard to see as the contrast between the pink and white is difficult to pick up with the camera.
The second set are made with 4" alternate squares
in pink and white and white and pink
The center square is 2" and the surrounding layers
are alternating strips of 1" to 1 1/4" scraps.
Starting the new year with enthusiasm is simple
It's trying to sustain the enthusiasm throughout the rest of the year
as the mundane home and family stuff start to demand attention away from sewing, But I make the attempt every year.
Happy year of the Wood Snake everyone!
