Fussy Cut Sampler QAL - Blocks 33-36

This week, the blocks in the Fussy Cut Sampler focus on using a geometric print as a focal fabric. As fun as it is using cute fussy cut fabrics, I am running out!  So it was nice to have a week that focused on something a little different.

Block 33.  I decided to go for a black and white color scheme on this one.
The Fussy Cut Sampler Block # 34
Block 34.  This block caught my eye when I first opened the book and I have been looking forward to it.  It would be fun to make a whole quilt of these.

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.
