Squirrel's Batik Brother #2 is done -
And a nice surprise -
I decided that I wanted the Dark Blue to be the Star -
But then I wasn't sure about the Green blending into the Background -
But I like it!! - ;))
These are the ones I pulled for the next block -
Normally I would choose the Star color first -
But some of these Fat Quarters are a bit larger than "normal" and come out to 19" x 23" -
Which is really nice when I'm trying to squeeze ALL of the pieces that I need out of one Fat Quarter -
And since I have had to re-cut some of the Background pieces -
And that's the one with the most pieces -
I decided this time to go with the longest one for the Background -
And the shortest one for the Star -
So stay tuned -
I should have it done in time to post it tomorrow - ;))
And I know I really should come up with another name for this one -
but I kinda like -
Squirrel's Batik Brother-
Because that's exactly what it is - LOL - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
Love the new star. You and your squirrels lol.
ReplyDeleteSome of mine, due to my fat quarters being a bundle, were less contrast-y, but in the end, it all turned out well. I'm trying to motivate myself to go take a photo of the top do I can post before I have to work today. But it's already hot outside...like 80 and its 9am!
ReplyDeleteI really like that block and the selection for the next one is gorgeous too.
ReplyDeleteOh my! I'm really liking these and I like the next fabric pull too.
