Felt the need to make a quick block today, no idea why. This block is from six white horses. Decided to use my Denyse Schmidt fabrics. I love how this one turned out.
I finished the first block in the FQS mystery designer BOM. Let me just say I love that there was enough fabric for two blocks because I actually made this one twice and my first was over an INCH too small! My seam allowance was a perfect scant 1/4" my cuts were flawless so when I made the second I adjusted my seam allowance to it was two thread widths scant instead of one and that seemed to do the trick. I also pressed uber carefully too. The second was a perfect 12.5" on the nose! No trimming required.
Excuse the crappy cell pic...I still have yet to find my camera charger!
Made some excellent progress on my month 2 Dear Jane blocks and I have to get a photo of them yet. Only have one more to finish up but I'm still kinda trying to figure it out. Have to go to the blog for some more instructions.
But in other news, the Fat Quarter Shop Mystery Designer BOM has landed! It came with a mini charm pack that's going straight for my hexi pile. I'm gonna go get whip up the first block now!
Over at Angela's she is having an amazing quilt-a-long. Mario Bros. style. OMG, I think my heart just stopped.
As a child of the 80s, I can't NOT do this QAL. I have the FQS 2012 BOM arriving any day now, my Dear Jane, and this. I've really gotta get cranking on my Dear Jane tho!
