This month's
Meadow Mystery Quilt Along instructions involved lots of half square triangles...56 (not that I wasn't counting!!). Luckily the instructions included the option to oversize them and then trim them down to the 4.5" size needed. Once they were complete, one set was used to assemble Block 6. The Alison Glass purple batik I chose has a gradated density of floral motifs across the width of fabric. I sorted the pieced HSTs accordingly and placed the most dense pink/orange/yellow flowers towards the large orange triangle with the all purple swatches at the opposite corner.

I am pretty excited to have four finished blocks after the first month of piecing. And if this is Block 6, we will have at least 5 other blocks to piece in the coming months. Looking forward to seeing what October's instructions will reveal...

Great fabric and color choices! And what crisp points you have! This is going to be a stunner.
ReplyDeleteThanks Afton...I am pretty excited for this year's mystery quilt along (and my fun fabric palette). It's been fun seeing everyone's fabric selection and progress!
DeleteMel, perfect placement! Love your fabrics!
ReplyDeleteThanks Paige--I was pretty excited to incorporate the fabric design into my blocks. Not entirely sure what the end result will yield, but these little details will add to its character.
DeleteI love this so much! The placement of your HSTs in your blocks is so great. I can't wait to see your other fabrics added into the mix! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah...I just love incorporating ombre fabrics into my designs--they are so much fun to use and create some amazing effects. I too can't wait to see how the other fabrics play along in the mix!
