I’m finding it rather hard to believe I’ve already got 25 of these blocks done! Every one of them has been an absolute joy to make. This one was no exception.
The back:
Two decisions made. First of all, I’m going to keep making these blocks with these types of fabrics until I have … well, I don’t know how many blocks. They’re so much fun to make and will make a really colourful quilt. I will do another with more fussy cutting/printing to get the special effects as in the original.
The second decision? I’m going to start the Mary Wigham Sampler, found at Needleprint. I ordered my linen on the weekend and, as soon as it arrives, will be ready to go. I’ve ordered a cream linen, and am thinking of doing all the stitching in a Wedgwood blue. That’s still a tentative idea, though. It may well change by the time the linen arrives.
It was a rather odd weekend as far as weather goes. Sunday it kept threatening to really pour down, but never quite did — at least not until later in the evening. The sky at sunset was an odd orange colour, not a normal sunset colour at all. I later heard that there were funnel clouds spotted in the surrounding areas.
Saturday was rather nice, albeit a bit cooler than last week. Lester was enjoying the windowsill.
Smudge, on the other hand, was relaxing in his favourite chair.

I think you are wise to just continue making blocks. Then you can choose any that really don't fit the style and still have enough for a quilt.

I imagine you will just keep on making blocks and when you get more directional type fabrics you will have fun playing with those. However, when you get started on the Mary Wigham project, it may slow you down a bit LOL.Crispy

Your POTC blocks are awesome and are inspiring others to join in. I love all of them. Somewhere along the line, I think I started a Mary Wigham sampler. My stitching is packed so I will have to search it out (next year!) I started mine in a darker taupe linen. Would have to get new magnifiers to finish it though!Keep up the good work.
