Several days of progress on different projects. It feels good to get things going.
This is my bitcoin flimsy. Bonnie Hunter released the pattern in 2021 and I really liked the arrangement and the ability to use up the bag of 1 1/2 inch strips I had. But I didn't want to keep making more and more, and saw a modified arrangement using long strips of a background in between the vertical rows by Nann of With Strings Attached. It made for a great combination. I found a nice red small print which accentuated my color combination. I do like the Thimbleberries and Kansas Troubles. But I have added some brighteners to increase the contrast. This is a twin sized quilt top, but no destined recipient yet.
And as a new month comes, so does a new block for my Stash Bee.
This one had lots of 2 inch squares.
And lastly, I have a few blocks to show for my New York Beauty: They are a fun detour from the other blocks and require different skills with paper piecing and curves.
Keep on quilting.
Congrats on the flimsy! I love your bitcoin top! The red really sets it off. Beautiful! Pretty fabric for your NYB blocks, and I love the scrappy squares block too.

ReplyDeleteI like the triple columns of coins. And thanks for the mention. :) I admire your multi-ring NYB blocks!
ReplyDeleteI really like your Bitcoin version. The long columns really show off the other fabrics. Great NY Beauty blocks, too. That one is on my bucket list!
