So excited the Sew Sweet Simplicity BOM has finally started!!!
I heard from a lot of you how much you were looking forward to the BOM starting, and I felt the same way!! So here's to an exciting beginning and 6 months of great blocks, sewing fun, prizes and surprises, and getting to know each other!!
Spoiler alert:
I won't show you till the end, but I chose to make the original 6 blocks into a Christmas table runner (in Moda Figgy Pudding, with a few other fabrics thrown in), and being as I would need that before the BOM was over I have completed my blocks already, but I am working on at least one other project with the blocks and more then likely another just because it is more fun to work along with you!!
I chose to use a focal fabric for my centers for the runner and an all over quilting pattern instead of applique or embroidery, partly because I haven't done much or either of those and mostly because I chickened out!! lol
So on with the picture show:

The quilt pattern is a snowflake and string lights digital pattern!

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful Block One! I love that you used fabric (from your stash) and can feature that in the center, too! Your quilting is so lovely. Can't wait to see your finished table runner! Great idea!
