This past weekend I had one of those moments, but I figured I would put my scrappy pin cushion to the side until I could concentrate on it this weekend during my "Unadulterated Sewing Extravaganza" (that's what I'm calling it now) and instead I would get my blocks done for this month's Hope Quilt in the do. Good Stitches Bee. The Hope circle supports the charity Threading Hope which provides a quilt to children in need around the globe.
Krista asked for a slightly wonky, square within a square in blues, greens and whites. Her theory is that there are a lot of quilts out there in pinks and florals but it's probably harder to find quilts out there made for boys. I took this as an opportunity to dip into my stash of Alexander Henry (Spotted Owls and Entertaining Elephants) and Riley Blake (Wheels) that I have been saving for a little boy quilt. They're both finished at 12.5" square and they're off in the mail.
I found you on Quilt Story! I really like the colors in these blocks, the fabric choices are wonderful. This will make some boy very happy.
