"Never forget"
The block names this month seem so appropriate after just remembering the 11th on Monday. It seems ages ago, but yet feels like yesterday.
For the details of the quilt along, including pattern, supplies, and dates, see my earlier post announcement HERE.
This Month’s Blocks
Sew Star Block
The star block has a lot of parts, but they are worth it!
I loved using the same point fabrics with different centers and backgrounds.
Sew Stripes Blocks
The stripe blocks were simplistic, but they resemble actual spools the most.
I was so tempted to do strips of one color for each spool, but resisted and stuck to the complete scrappy looks.
I am so glad to be able to have this sew along as I returned to work. I had thought I would be able to balance, but the germs had other ideas for me this fall as school started. It forces me to get acquainted with my studio at least once a month!
Stay tuned for next month’s block on Thursday, October 12th!
