Sulabug and MissGigglewings great blocks to get us started.

MissGiggleWings............What an awesome job you have done on your July 2012 BOM block!! :D I just love the fabric's you found to use, they are really great. I have to ask, how did you get your block done so fast? :D You must have been up all night!! Hee-Hee Thank you so much for sharing with all of us. I know it really help's to get the juices flowing, when we can post blocks early in the month. I LOVE IT!!
:D :D :D :D

Thank you Judy & yes, I used that red fabric because it looked like "The Rocket's Red Glare". I thought it was perfect for this block.

Thank you Jenniky too, for the nice compliments on our blocks for July. It was really a nice block to make & fun too. I hope everyone is having fun getting ready to put their's together!!
:D :D :D :D

Both blocks are beautiful...thanks for posting!

ok I have tried 5 times to upload and nothing. I have resized the picture many times and still no luck. But It is finished and I really like it. I will try later.

Well I can't get the single July block posted but here is all 7 for now.

Beautiful block urgodschild2! Nice fabrics.

Here is my block for the "red" line, but I think for my other theme I'll have to come up with something else. Just can't see the flag in purples and greens.

urgodschild2............WOW, all of your Calender theme blocks for the 2012 BOM project look so lovely together. What a neat quilt you are going to have by the end of the year. Your July block turned out really neat, I love the fabric's you chose to put together. Very nice work & thank you for sharing with all of us!!
:D :D :D :D

bibliostone............Awesome July 2012 BOM block. Your color's all go together so well & it looks very striking!! :D
I agree with you about your second block not being appropriate with the color's of purple & green. But I just know you will come up with something just as wonderful. We can hardly wait to see how it turn's out too!!
:D :D :D :D

For your second quilt, some fireworks in purple and green might work! Just a thought...

Sulabug: Thanks for the kind words! I was looking for something to do before church...and decided I could finish this block in the hour or so that I had. I guess I have Adult ADD...I just can't set and do nothing! So now I got a whole month to wait for the next block! lol

Took awhile to find a star print that would go with my batiks. Found a mottled one that I think works well.

Tweety: Yes, it does go well. Looks great.

Tweety..................it's just perfect!! :D Your batik's look awesome together & your star fabric just pulls your block together in the right way. I also had a hard time finding a star fabric & had to go buy a quarter of a yard, just to have that small piece!! :D Your work is very nice. Thank you for sharing with all of us.
:D :D :D :D

Here's my July block.. I've had it made but hadn't seen any postings for the July BOM - well DUH, guess ya gotta subscribe to it first!! I went huntin' while ago and guess what I found - yup, the thread!! Soooo, here it is. It's neat, I can see a whole quilt made with this block.

Jean..........I am so glad that you found the thread for the July 2012 BOM. Your block turned out really great. I love the fabric you picked to use & the way you put your block together. I can see a whole quit made of these blocks. It would be so pretty. Thank you for sharing with all of us.
:D :D :D :D

Urgodschild, Bibliostone, Tweety and Oksewnsew you guys are speedy :) Fabulous blocks as usual. Im still in the fabric selection mode. Im looking for that twist to make the block mine. :) LOL I am really looking at the scrappy aspect of this block. Im thinking that is the key to my personalizing it. The field of stars fabric is my stump-er though. So the search is still on. :)

Here is my July BOM. Normally, I would have done strictly red, white, and blue. But, I was working with some food fabrics, and couldn't resist doing this in the blueberries and watermelon.

Happy 4th of July to all! Enjoy and be safe!

How cute! Love it!

Reminds me of some Independence Day celebrations I had as a kid. Fun! Perfect.

Jenniky, I always look forward to seeing what kind of spin you put into your blocks, I will be looking out for it:)

July Block
 

Here is my July block. As you know I make two blocks, usually this BOM and one similar but different, for my grandaughters. But I decided to make two of this block. The way I'll make them different, is that I'm going to use this as the signature block. So I'll embroidry their names, and the date and maybe a couple little embroidered fireworks in the white area. Now I'll just wait until I set up my embroidery part of my machine. Which might be a while yet. Next month I'll be on vacation the first two weeks of Aug, so will have to do those blocks later in the month, but I don't want to miss a month.

Beautiful block!

That just so speaks of Fourth of July Picnics. I would never of thought of using fruit fabric.. the coloration is fabulous. Really great job Kris :thumbup:

Now this block makes me want to stand up and salute. Great job on this block very summery and festive. :thumbup:

Ladies, your blocks are gorgeous! I love the food one :D
Here's mine. I don't live in the US so mine is not RBW. I thought of flowers and bright fabric so that's what I did!
[ATTACH=CONFIG]346475[/ATTACH]

I really like your flowers and bright pink, Anael. I was thinking, if you don't live in the US, you could also do a beach scene. The stars could be the beach and the stripes could be blue and white for the waves. Or a snow covered mountain and the stripes are the hills below. No, haven't started mine yet.hehe

Happy Independance Day. In celebration of having the day off of work, I made my July block.
