July Lucky Stars Block

My Mom has been in town visiting so I haven't had much time for sewing, but I did find a little to put together my July Lucky Stars Block.

I feel a little meh about my fabric choices on this one, but I think it will match up with the other blocks well.  I am planning on adding more blues in the future so I think that will help.

July's block was pretty easy to put together and once again I made the 6.5" block.  At the end of the year I am planning on making a wall hanging with the finished blocks.

    These are all looking very cute together - and I love your colour scheme. I don't think I would have thought of it, but it totally works.

    Oh, i like this one! I think the pop of blue against the white is great. And if you plan on making more with blue then it should fit right in! Not that it doesn't now, it just comes off as a bit, "Look at me!" But the overall feel of it is still totally on par with the rest! I love all of these so much!

What Shade Are You? Blog Hop & Giveaway

A few weeks ago RJR Fabrics contacted me to see if I was interested with working on a project using their solids.  I checked out their colors and was pretty smitten so I said yes. And they exceeded my expectations.  I mixed them in with some of the prints from Rashida Coleman Hale's new Mochi collection .  Since Cotton + Steel is actually a division of RJR fabrics, the RJR solids coordinate perfectly with the collections. The RJR Cotton Supreme Solids have a great selection of pinks (I think good pinks are the hardest to find) and my favorite is actually the neutral-y brown Driftwood color that I used for the binding.  It might not be cool to love brown, but I do, and Driftwood (color 297) will be filling a void in my stash.   The quilt looks more complicated than it actually is: each of the diamonds is made up of 2 triangles (so there are no y-seams) and I cut the fabric with my  favorite triangle ruler .      I didn't want the quiltin...
