Here’s my Block 1 all finished.
(To watch the YouTube replays of me making Block 1 Live, click here.)
Kind of a vintagey, floral explosion.
I like it.
It’s interesting to see the fabrics come together.
I don’t know about you, but I feel like it’s a mystery how fabric and color combinations will relate to each other and in the larger quilt. You can do all the planning in the world, but the result is still ultimately a surprise.
A great surprise because it represents you.
It’s like a fingerprint. No one is ever going to put fabrics and colors together quite like you. And that makes your quilt uniquely special.
