This is the October block for the Nurture circle of Do.Good.Stitches. It is a Moda bakeshop pattern and you can find it here. When I first saw the pattern I thought kick ass, I really like it...and I do, but it has so many pieces. My circle was making the smallest one, so 64 2" squares. So many HST, so much trimming and much piecing. Let me be honest this is an eye crossing, swear spewing, time consuming block. Looks great when you are finished and I think if I I was making one of the bigger ones it would be much more rewarding. These are finished and going in the mail. Maybe one day I will make the big one but for now I need a break from this pattern. God speed evil blocks, may you make a beautiful quilt for a lucky foster kiddo.

Thanks for the heads up ! Your blocks look great, especially the one on the right. But at such cost !
ReplyDeleteYikes! Quilting should be fun! If any solace, the blocks are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThese are really pretty. Nice color combo.
ReplyDeletethey look really great - but I don't think I would be up for making one myself. :)
ReplyDeleteLOL I think you should tell us how you really feel about this block. ;)
ReplyDeleteHa ha! They do look great though.
ReplyDeleteLol, I felt the same way!
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful, but that's a lot of painful, small sewing! Bigger is better, as far as I'm concerned.
