Please recommend how wide I should cut my strips and that's what I will do.
|
You should be able to get away with a 2 1/4 inch strip, maybe as big as 2 1/2 but that I think is pushing it, so they will be small,

deranged_damsel I love the way you have your blocks layed out!!! Awesome pattern, it is so bright and cheery and colorful :D:D:D
Salmonsweet, I really like the color play of your blocks and lay out too!!! Such a stunning quilt :D:D:D buffy2, I love the 2 fabric idea!!! I am doing this too :wink: I really like your lay out!!! That is beautiful :D:D:D I am done sewing the darker fabrics that I have cut, will be starting on the lighter fabric tomorrow Woo Hoo :D:D:D |
There's a LQS on the way to retreat, maybe I will look for another fabric there tomorrow.
|
WOW! thanks everyone for the compliments :oops:
looking back on it now.. I dont think my fabric was the best choice to follow Cutes intructions. The stripes made hexs that were just TO different and some EXACTLY the same. I couldnt get them to blend. Im just glad it turned out, that goes to show that ANY quilt, ANY mistakes can be rescued and turn out lovely. |

I checked Blank Textiles and couldn't find it there. :mrgreen: |
Still sewing on the lighter colored fabric....:D:D:D
I am getting so excited to see if I can pull this off LMBO |

Hi Another row of blocks completed. This is very exciting. I am loving it. Salmonsweet you blocks are lovely. I am planing on doing a black and white quilt, don't know what design it will be yet. Back to the sewing room blocks are awaiting.

Oooooo I am loving it :D:D:D

Just checking back in - love what I'm seeing!
Salmonsweet - I'm anxiously waiting to see your finished black & cream quilt. I think it's a sharp look. |
