To add another block to my Real Life Red & White quilt, I chose a little bit quicker one than I’ve been working on lately. I chose the Aurifil February 2014 BOM.
In addition, I received two more of my blocks from the Winter 2014 4×5 Modern Quilt Bee, so it’s like I finished THREE blocks toward my goal! Just kidding, I’m halfway to my first goal for the 30/30 challenge. I still have some more projects I’ve been working on that just aren’t ready to show yet.
Enjoy the blocks I have so far below:
To review my 30/30 Challenge:
1. Two ONE block for my “Real World Red & White” Sampler.
2. A shirt for me. I’ve been wanting to make my own clothes for awhile, so why not start?
3. Get ready for spring! I need at least one pair of shorts for my daughter, preferable more.
4. Acknowledge that spring is not here yet, therefore make a couple pairs of pants for my daughter.
5. Complete the March Stash Bee block – that’s not a real goal, more of a must finish, but I think it still counts (and makes this list a little less clothing heavy).
Ooh – I love that block. What is the red print with the concentric dashed circles – it’s wonderful! Are you entering one of the red and white challenges this year?
Thanks! The one I think you are referring to is stitched circles by Michael Miller. It comes in all different colors, and is awesome to use as a blender.
I started this quilt because I love red, and need a queen sized quilt. I’ve seen the challenges at Sew Cal Gal, but I don’t know if this will fit in any of the categories. Have you seen any others?
You’ve got some really great blocks in there… this’ll be such a great looking quilt.
Thank you! I’m excited at how this is coming so far.
