Hey sewjoyce I had the same thing.... my seam rippers gave up and went home.... As I said my expensive fabric. looks like a scrap piece of fabric.. (CORRECTION it is 100% and not 100$) My block is all squanky (can't think of another word!!!) but I am leaving it till I have the inclination to re do it. But the funny thing is that the pattern was so EASY and I still could not get the flipping points right. :oops: ciao


"Flipping points" is RIGHT!! :evil:

OK, after much fuss and aggravation on my part, I had a talk with the block components of this month's BOM. They had a choice -- make into a nice block or be forever in a landfill. Here is what they chose:

lookin' good, everybody! :thumbup:

here's mine, Dear Jane size.
Outstanding block, Patrice. The color choices make it just pop out and says "here I am!!". Lovely!!

JudyG 04-05-2010 07:52 PM
sewjoyce - your block components made the right choice - that block is gorgeous. Love the colors. I really have to get busy - I've downloaded the four patterns but have yet to get started. Hopefully on Wednesday I'll have time to sew. I do want to use my stash for this so will have to do some pulling of fabrics to see if I have enough on hand.

Donna P 04-05-2010 08:57 PM
All the blocks so far are so pretty I can't wait to make mine......It looks to be fairly easy hey?

sewjoyce--isn't it great when we talk to our fabrics or quilt designs? Your rosebud's so soft looking.

abi 04-06-2010 11:32 AM
Ok. I've been out of the loop a few days here. now I have to catch up.

PatriceJ love your Dear Jane size rose bud block.

Sewjoyce the soft pink buds are wonderful.

I saw some pretty pink rose buds at Wal-Mart on Sat. I love flowers. Wish hubby would get the hint.

You all are doing wonderful. Keep on sewing.

I love all the different blocks that everyone has made. Aren't we a clever bunch?

I like yellow roses so I chose yellow. I wanted to use the sprigged white muslin because I've used it in each of the other blocks.

It's not what I hoped it to be, it's rather dull.... but I have way too much to do before we go on holiday so I am going to live with it.

I am enjoying looking at all the blocks. When we started in January, I pulled a small selection of fabrics to use, hopefully I will have enough for the 12 blocks.

abi 04-07-2010 07:31 PM
It is so neat to see what colors everyone comes up with.
Nice job DonnaP and JanieW

And here's mine. Completed finally after much unpicking! I'm still not too happy about the points but it's good enough that I don't need a button in the middle! :)

abi 04-08-2010 03:33 AM
Looks good to me.

craftybear 04-08-2010 03:45 AM

Thank you for the nice compliments. I am posting a closeup picture of the fabric, I used in my block. It's not grey, it's a light green with white polka dot's on it. My poor camera is old & the pictures don't turn out, as true as they should be!! I hope this shows the color much better!!
:D :D :D :D

Here's my block! I decided to make the dark leaves as the inside block. because I needed the light green background in keeping with my other blocks. So Instead I made a large flower !
