Here is my contribution to the Pieced Together Quilting Bee for April:
Erin requested rectangles and squares. I think this quilt is going to look great.
I also started a quilt for my childhood friend who is having a baby boy (if the sonogram is correct!) in July. I'm using the Hopscotch quilt pattern from Super Simple Quilts #1
. So far it has been super simple, though I think I might substitute the horizontal green stripe fabric for a solid green to add a little more oomph. What do you think?More blocks to come!
I don't think I've ever commented here, but I read and love your blog!
ReplyDeleteI made a baby quilt from these fabrics last summer, and now I can't wait to see yours! I do think a solid green, or more solid print would give it more oomph. I remember having a hard time with these fabrics for that reason...the stripy prints just blended in when you looked at it from a distance.
I am right there with ya on the sewers block. So I cleaned my sewing room instead (which I consider a significant accomplishment :) ).
ReplyDeleteI agree that a solid green rectangle might look better.
I love the block you made for me! I think it's going to look great with all these blocks in a quilt, too!
ReplyDeleteLove those green Katie Jump Rope fabrics! :)
Oh Steph, this is going to be so cute! I am so jealous that you are using the Katie Jump Rope fabrics for this quilt!
