Good Day, and welcome to my blog.
I decided to try a few of the Leaders and Enders blocks designed by Bonnie Hunter - the County Clare pattern. See her blog for more information.
I am working in 30's reproduction fabrics as I have a good number of scraps and pieces laying around. The background fabric is leftover quilt backing fabric. I am making chains of blue fabrics, and the small squares are of all kinds of colors.
Soon, I had a small pile of blocks.
And sometimes, I centered a dog or cat or child seen in the fabric used.
As in the two Scotty dogs above. Although Bonnie cautioned readers not to go too fast, but use the block as a leader and ender, I now have almost enough for a small baby quilt:
I still need some blocks. The "chains" of blue are not as prominent as I would like. It may looks better once it is sewn together. But, these blocks are packed away for now. A new shiny object - a new pattern - has caught my eye. But more on that next week.
Linking up with Midweek Makers, Wednesday Wait Loss (she featured my Cups and Saucers top - thank you!), Needle and Thread Thursday, Put your Foot Down at the Quiltery, Nina-Marie, Finished or Not at Alycia Quilts, Oh Scrap at Quilting is more Fun than Housework.
