A Friday Finish, for the first time in ages!
The girls in the Hive have been busy. We previously made the original Scrappy Celebration, then the second version in brighter colors, then the patriotic version. We weren't tired of making blocks yet, so we moved on to black and black-alternative blocks with bright batiks. We made too many blocks for one quilt so we split them up into Cool colors and Warm colors.
The top with the cool colors is finished. Several of us worked on the layout on the design wall in PCQ's quilting room, with lots of input from our friends. Here's the finished version of the top, assembled by Linda:
Here are some of the blocks I sewed in February. We ended up not using one of them because it stood out too much.
The warm colors version is still in work; we need to make about 20 more blocks.
Oh, this one is way cool, pun intended ;-) It has such a different impact with the black background vs light. I like them both and would be hard pressed to pick a favorite.
ReplyDeleteThe bright colors really do glow with the black/dark background. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteJust shows how the use of different fabrics can entirely change the look of a quilt design. That pattern is on my list to make. Fabulous.
ReplyDeleteLove it
