A Short Video of some Motifs/Techniques Learned in the Free Courses!
Yesterday, I worked on fusing more fish blocks.
I just could not wait for each month to come out...so went and bought the pattern package at Fat Cat Patterns.
When I started this Block-of-the-Month...I was thinking it was a "normal" 12-month of blocks...but nope, there are 15 of them. An odd number for a quilt.
Twelve will be plenty for Aidan's twin bed...and that's a good thing...because I only had enough of the blue blackground for twelve blocks.
I changed to a different background for the last three...which will be a double-owl wall hanging above her bed...and a bed pillow.
These are all going to Retreat with me this month...and maybe I'll get some of them actually stitched! All of the edges need some sort of embroidery work...to help keep the fusible in place during laundry time!
I think Aidan will enjoy this quilt when it is finished.
Here are three little fishy blocks...from FatCat Patterns BOM. One more to go, and I'm caught up. All still have to be hand stitched along the edges of each fusible piece. They will go to Retreat with me at the end of this month...and we shall see if my muse behaves herself...and actually gets them completed!
Here are some closeups for ya...are's they just too cute!
Thinking that this would be one really cool quilt for Aidan's twin bed ...
...when all twelve blocks are done!
