I’m not sure what color this Kona solid is but I’ve decided to call it blueberry! I believe two others working on the Bottle Rainbows QAL used the same blueberry fabric and I knew I had to include it as well…. because my granddaughter Emma loves… with a capital “L”… loves blueberries!
The girls got to see the completed block yesterday and Emma was so excited about the blueberries… she couldn’t believe there was fabric with very real looking blueberries on it! Chloe identified the Kaffe Fassett tree-looking print in the lower right corner as a blueberry bush!
It was nice to place the last block on the bed with the others… they look very nice together…
I spent a little time getting all the unused fabric scraps (believe me there were quite a few of them) back into their bins and otherwise cleaning/straightening up. I'll start sewing the blocks together and working on assembling the quilt.
I've decided not to put on a border and will piece the binding so it matches each border block.
The Bottled Rainbows QAL has been such fun and a real joy to work on... all the beautiful colors, all the wonderful fabric scraps to revisit and play with, and a new challenge by working on my first QAYG project! I don't see this quilt being finished overnight but I already have my next FNSI project ready to work on...
I just love this block and I am curious how it looks whwn it's finished.
