Working on some smaller projects
The last few days I have been working on some smaller projects... and enjoying every minute of it.
First Project: February's block for the And Sew On BoM.
This is a paper pieced Block of the Month group, by Kristy at Quiet Play. She designed the blocks, and offers the pattern for free during the month it is the featured pattern. (After that, it is available in her Craftsy shop. ) I love her designs and style .. and everything she sews! For more details, hop on over to her blog and her Flickr group to see other beautiful blocks and projects.

Second project: ' Test sew' some patterns for Kristy, Quiet Play , from her new Just My Type collection. Her numbers and punctuation pattern set will be in her Craftsy store soon! The alphabet is available now.

Loving your paper piecing! Your And Sew on blocks look so great together! Fab colour scheme!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for testing the numbers and punctuation too - so appreciate your help!
I had to go back and look carefully at your February block, I thought the seam ripper was an actual seam ripper laid on top of the block, I couldn't work out why it was there, what do you need to unpick? Oh, it's part of the block...Silly me lol!
ReplyDeleteThat's gotta be good though right? So realistic it looks like the real thing?
Great work - you are a paper-piecing princess! I love the fabrics you are using for the notions. That black adds just the right pop! Am in love with the @ sign design, too!
ReplyDeleteYour Jan. & Feb. blocks are impressive .... I just can't imagine making a seam ripper via paper piecing - you are good!!!! The other two paper piecing blocks 'blow my mind'. Is it obvious that paper piecing is not my forte? Well done!
ReplyDeleteLove your blocks! I signed up to do a paper piecing BOM too, with Don't Call Me Betsy. I need to get my Jan & Feb blocks done this weekend, along with my Across the Pond item. It will be a busy time in my sewing room! YAY!
ReplyDeleteI like the fabric you are using. Can't wait to see what it looks like when it is done!!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks look great together! The flower fabric really stands out!
ReplyDeleteYour pp is perfect!! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteyour Sew On blocks are great! Looking at yours, I realised that I didn't use any of the same fabrics between the first and second block - oops!
