Today I finished the last of my broken dishes blocks, bringing my total to 20 completed blocks. I thought it would be fun to photograph them on my clothesline for a change of pace. Aren't they soooo pretty hanging out there? I'm making another version of
this quilt, except this time I'm making more blocks (20 instead of 12) and skipping the borders. I think it's going to be fabulous!
I'm using two bundles from the "I Want Her Stash" club from
Westwood Acres, which were curated by Amy Smart and Denyse Schmidt. They have been curing nicely in my stash (I've had them for a few years) and I love how they play together. The background is my own fabric from my
Emma and Myrtle collection for
Connecting Threads. I love the vintage feel of this entire combination. It was a great exercise to use bundles picked by someone else for a change. I loved it!
They look adorable hanging on your clothesline!

ReplyDeleteSo pretty!!
ReplyDeleteSo much fun!! The first thing I thought of was Chicklets gum.
ReplyDeleteI keep scrolling back up to look at that photo! They are so happy and cheerful on your clothesline. I hope you pulled up a chair with a cup of tea or coffee and admired them for a bit, hanging there so cute!

ReplyDeleteWelcome back, Amanda! Hope you enjoyed the summer with your family.
ReplyDeleteOh, the colours are just fantastic, Amanda Jean!
ReplyDeleteNow I'm really excited to see these two quilts come together - will be fun to see the difference in having one with borders and one without.
Happy stitching and wishing you a wonderful long weekend!

ReplyDeleteGreat display...wonderful to have a finish..
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I have lots of fabric “curing” as well, ha!
ReplyDeleteLove the Broken Dishes blocks hanging out on the line. Just gorgeous colors!
ReplyDeleteIf they look this good spread out on the line (and they are gorgeous!) I imagine they will be stunning all organized in a quilt. I can't wait to see the top. And welcome back...we've missed you. :)
ReplyDeleteOh that will be a fun one! Love them hanging on your line!
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that I’ve never seen something creative like that before. I love embroidery patches designs
