WIP Wednesday #33
Wednesday again? What, like it happens every seven days now or something? I've got things to do, people to see, t-ball games to watch, bathing suits to wring out, etc. But I have been sneaking in some sewing time here and there ...
Ongoing projects:Skill Builder Sampler Quilt-Along - currently caught upBlock #2 was a value nine-patch. I'm working with Weekends by Erin McMorris for this QA, and value is challenging within this line. Many of the prints are around the same value, and some of the others are so large-scale and multi-colored that it's hard to pinpoint a value at all. I considered getting my contrast in this block from warm colors versus cool, just as Jeni did for the Warm/Cool Quilt Along that I'm completing right now. But I decided to stay true to Leila's challenge, instead of taking the easy way out. And I'm glad I did, because I love the end result!
