back to the Old School Saturday Sampler BOM ... this month's assignment is pinwheel blocks
simple enough, huh?!?
but...
yes, there IS always a but
the pattern calls for two pinwheel blocks ... each made with four HSTs that finish at 4.5 inches...
and (here's the but) that would have left no room for the fairies...
so...
i made two modified Clay's Choice blocks...
one little fairy is giving her pinwheel a twirl ... and the other little fairy is huffing and puffing for all she's worth
here they are with last month's block...
not at all like the pattern ... but not too shabby
and here is a picture of some of the other BOMers' blocks for last month...
there are a few other rebels in the group ... do you see Auntia's dog house up there?!?
and now i'm gonna go put on a pot of water to cook some pasta...
i shouldn't take too much credit for all its shininess - it's a self-cleaning oven ... but i DO hafta pay the electric bill
cuz there's no way i'm gonna mess up that sparkling clean oven...
I DO love me a clean oven! Love your blocks!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I love those Clay's Choice blocks -- very nice!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are very sweet, I love the idea of fairies! Wow - that's one gorgeous oven, that is. Having good equipment makes you cook like a Cordon Bleu chef, n'est-ce pas?
ReplyDeleteThe fairies are adorable! What is the secret plan for all the blocks in this quilt??
ReplyDeleteI still don't get the weird block that looks like (searching for words here...)a...uhh..gate? It makes more sense with the fairy but still...
ReplyDeleteI AM waiting for a pop of colour in your blocks :)
How did you get that oven so incredibly SHINY??? I have a dirty one waiting for me..*sigh*
