This is one of my two monthly projects. I fell behind and didn't get any of these made in April, but I am done....for a few days! This is not an easy block to make, but I'm hoping I'll think it was worth it when it's done.
No, they are not all the same...... It just happens....
Like the Sally Post blocks I like to try and get the rows together while I'm making it so it isn't as much work at the end.
I've noticed I was at 999 followers (not including bloglovin'). I'm purging my sewing room and have a few quilt market giveaways, which are super random objects. So, be looking for a giveaway next week!!
It's already looking great, so when you are finished I am sure you will be very happy with the work you have done.
ReplyDeleteIt's looking good Lori. What is it about red, white and green quilts they always look so happy .
ReplyDeleteIt will be a fabulous Christmas quilt.
I took a 'really' good look and it's amazing how many different colour arrangements you have. It is looking lovely.
ReplyDeleteYour Christmas blocks are awesome. It's going to be beautiful for the holidays.
ReplyDeleteThat is going to be a beautiful Christmas quilt, I plan on doing mine during the summer so they will be ready in time.

Those blocks are working up into a beautiful quilt. It will be so much fun to display it at Christmas.
ReplyDeletebeautiful and congrats on being so popular!
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite color combinations.
How smart of you to sew them in rows as you go along. GREAT idea!
Beautiful, love the red and green.
ReplyDeleteI really think the quilt is more visually interesting with the way the color combinations "just happen". There is more movement and depth--and it looks more like a humble quilt, too. Isn't that what we want in the end? : )
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely and I think the idea of putting rows together as you go is a great idea. I might do that next time if I can.
ReplyDeleteHey Lori, 'love the red and green blocks, but don't know where you find the patience for those set-in corners! I went to the IQSM yesterday! I will post pix soon, hugs, CW
ReplyDeleteLori, I didn't see any of the wonky blocks. Did you rip them out?? They are great. You are amazing!! Always on task and getting so much accomplished!! And congrats on making it over 1,000!!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving these blocks - they look great, and also love the idea of putting the rows together as you go. It seems that I like to make blocks, but have loads of blocks that never get made into anything!
ReplyDeleteIt is looking so great already. The red and green are of course classic, but I like how you are varied the placement of color in the blocks. Another awesome quilt. Will you hand quilt it?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and classic & hey, you're at 1001 now!
ReplyDeletethey look wonderful! Love the red and green blocks, wow! glad you caught up its going to be an amazing quilt

I love the 'happening'....when the colors are switched around. I think it adds a lot and keeps the quilt interesting. I, too, stitch my rows as my quilt grows. It makes me feel like I've reached flimsy status so much quicker. (my mind is soooo easy to trick!)
ReplyDeleteIt is a fabulous block and I like that they are not all alike...more interesting.
ReplyDeleteI love your red and green project and especially how the colours are mixed. I'll remember that tip about joining as the rows are made, that's the tedious part for me.
ReplyDeleteYour red and green will definitely be worth it when you are finished. And, you have a pretty good idea of how much so looking at what you've put together already. I love the quilt. And, you have some good open space for spiffy quilting.
ReplyDeleteJust loving these blocks, definitely worth the effort!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks look so good. I love that some blocks are different! Such a good idea to add the rows together as you go. That part always feels like it takes forever.:)
ReplyDeleteYour blocks look wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI like the effect of these non-conforming blocks. Some same, some different!

ReplyDeleteYour idea to sew the rows together as you make the blocks is so smart. I'm going to try that tactic on my next project.
