So happy it's the weekend. Today is our down day. My Guy organizes a three day workshop for the 5th graders in our county and set up for that starts tomorrow afternoon. He'll be tied up with that all week. I can't get off work to help with all 4 days, but I'll be doing demos and helping with break down on Thursday. Life will even out for a few weeks once the workshop is over. We were out every evening this week, so my stitching time was pretty limited. I did manage to finish up the last large aqua fan.
I really like the star burst effect when the blocks are set together this way. I still need to finish the small aqua blocks from last month. Then I need to pull together my reds and see what I've got to work with to make this month's blocks. Linking up with Socrappy for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge and with Quilting is More Fun than Housework for Oh Scrap.
I love your starburst--as it is really bursting with color and charm-- I keep telling myself that --next week will be quieter--but--so I am still chasing -that week--!!! and I am retired and don't drive--so why am I soo busy????? Working on a red block today--wait until you see it-- enjoy the moments, di

This certainly pops! It is a wonderful burst of colour. I think this will be amazing when all the starbursts come together.
ReplyDeleteLove this photo of your aqua blocks, Kate! They make such a neat effect. Have a busy, but fun week!
ReplyDeleteI like the starburst effect too - you need a vacation !
ReplyDeleteWell, this is going to be really fun. I'm going to enjoy watching it go together.
ReplyDeleteThey are very energetic blocks, for sure! Congratulations on still getting that stitching time in so often.
ReplyDeleteWay to go! I'm intruigued by the fans' final layout. This is going to be fun watching them grow?

Here's hoping that you fit in a bit of sewing time over the weekend!!
ReplyDeleteWow! Just Wow!
ReplyDeleteLove the starburst effect.
ReplyDeleteYour fan blocks look fabulous together. I'm very curious to see your planned layout with the combination of large and small blocks.
ReplyDeleteOh very dramatic with the dark background, love it. Still crushing over last years though!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't ready for red either - so I shared a finish that involved RSC scraps. Your blocks are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLove Love the star burst look of your blocks!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see how this quilt turns out. Not sure I can wait a whole year :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
I am sooooo looking forward to seeing this quilt!!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty all together. I too keep waiting for that 'non busy' week... I fear it won't happen till the kids are grown!
ReplyDeleteDid you draw up your foundations for the scrappy fan or is there a pattern somewhere?
ReplyDeleteLove your colors!

I think with such a lovely block, we can let you get away with having a teal one! I must comment on your lovely blog header... just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove your starburst! Are you making more? I would love to see a group of them.
ReplyDeleteThis is such an impressive block, Kate. I hope you are making more of them. Looking forward to the quilt.
