I have no finish to share, but I did start one of the two quilt tops I was hoping to get finished this week.
I'm starting with this beautiful stack of organic fabric from Birch Fabrics. This is all from the Mod basics line. It is oh-so-lovely! The teal is going to be the background. The lime will be the backing.
Look at those dots! They are so, so good!
I'm making traditional rolling stone blocks. The dark background is a stretch for me. But I'm liking it!
The blocks are about 15". It's fun making bigger blocks! They go together pretty fast. I've got 3 of the 12 done. I'm still hoping to get the entire quilt top done this week....but we shall see! After all, it IS spring break. :)
How about you? Do you have a finish to share? If you do, please link up! Happy Friday to you!
very pretty. Will you use sashing to put together? I love the dots.

ReplyDeleteLove the dotted fabrics! And I love the way you paired them with the gorgeous solid teal color to make a very interesting block.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to report I had a very productive week - I finished two velveteen zipper pouches, a ticker tape quilt, and just released my first sewing pattern. And I managed to blog about all of them - Woohoo!
I was hoping to have a finish to share but instead have a broken sewing machine :-( your rolling stone block is great, love all the dotty fabrics!
ReplyDeleteLove the background. It would push me too, but it is perfect!
ReplyDeleteOoh, that is yummy fabric. Love those big blocks!

ReplyDeleteThat teal background is going to be just fabulous for all those polka dots!
ReplyDeleteI've been admiring the rolling stone block for a while now too. It kind of reminded me of that Denyse Schmidt pattern from a couple of years ago (Cog? Cog and something?), but waaaay easier and more do-able for me! I love your version - a LOT.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE IT! It is going to be fantastic. I can't wait to see the finished product.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love those gray on white dots!
ReplyDeleteI love the polka dots!
ReplyDeleteOrganic fabric design from all mod basics lines.It look so beautiful.This fabric designs are so interesting.It really great look.
ReplyDeleteI like the dots fabrics a lot. That's something for my stash as well.
ReplyDeleteI also like that you chose a dark background fabric (other than grey for example). I didn't use such a colour yet but I think it's worth a try.
Wow, (I am a little behind on reading blogs...LOL) LOVE the dots, the colors and the block. Very tempting to fully COPY it all...LOL...Seriously, I fell instantly in love.
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks. I love the blue and green solids you've chosen.
ReplyDeleteI really really love this block and wondered if you might direct me to the pattern. I found one on line that was paper pieced, but wondered if there was another one. :o)
