and we are using the book to do this BOM.. I selected three colorways, one is Kaffe and Kona cottons, one is all neutrals, and the last is more pastel-ish. We are working on color, combining colors, and accuracy. This is geared more toward beginners, in fact last year when I discussed the idea during (last year's) BOM they were excited to try it. We will be doing 5 blocks a month for 6 months. At the first meeting they picked up their bundle of FQs and every month they pick two more FQs. I am available to assist them with picking colors if they would like help.
The first session I was explaining everything to them and one lady asked "an we pick any FQ in the store"? I said yes and she said "Oh NO". I replied oh no? and she said too many choices. LOL
Since I already finished one top, I am using another layout in the book to make another top. It is all neutrals and is called Skyline. I kind of gravitate toward lots of color so using only neutrals is a challenge for me.
These are the blocks we are doing this first month.
More to come....Happy stitching!
I really like your colorful quilt....but like black and white too! I have sent you emails over the past months....but get notified they didn't go through. Just know I appreciate your comments on my blog!
ReplyDeleteI'm a color geek, too, but I really like the black and white blocks so far. It sounds like a fun project and you're ambitious to do 5 blocks per month. (I can do that many, but not usually 5 different ones...)
ReplyDeleteI would find the neutrals a challenge as well! I'm liking what you have so far though. Enjoy teaching the class - you seem so very organised!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, that top picture blew me away. That's some lovely work! Good luck with your new project!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like fun! I really like the quilt top and it will be interesting to see the neutral one as well. I agree, not my interest either, but I bet it will be striking. Are you going to make the Kaffe and Kona one also? That one will be gorgeous!
ReplyDeletegreaat quilts - and I love the idea of getting to choose whatever FQ they like - mens that everyone's quilts will be different and a real reflection of themselves. Love your colourful one, although the neutrals is looking cool, too!
ReplyDeleteI love the colors in the first quilt! Looks wonderful! Not sure I would like the one in neutrals, but it is good to stretch sometimes and see what happens.
ReplyDeleteI love your color arrangement in the first quilt! No doubt the black and white one will be lovely too. ---"Love"
