is the colour of month for January over at SoScrappy and the first colour of RSC15.
When I first pulled the blue that I used for the centre it looked "blue" in the early morning light.
My first measure and to trim up the dog ears is to place the bias square on that 45 degree angle and then trim from there.

Back to "Blue"...However it is now past noon and it is indeed a darker/more purple shade of "blue" than the "blue" that I used for the Ohio Star Points. Oh well, I have the whole month to get my act together and find the right "blues" in the scrap bin. You can see what others choices (correct choices) some others have made over at RSC15.

Looking good! I am so crazy busy right now I cannot start, but soon! Love you block!
ReplyDeleteThanks Andee, I am liking it too and have reconciled myself that it is blue. Hope things settle down and you can get back to the studio.
DeleteIt looks great.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and for leaving a comment. Happy New Year.
DeleteI love it! It makes me think of a party :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Laura. I have a few bits of music b/w's that I will use through out this quilt and hopefully that 'party' theme will carry through. Happy New Year
DeleteLooks good to me!
ReplyDeleteThanks for saying so Deb. I love it too. Looking forward to making a few more in several colours. Happy New Year
DeleteLooks good to me, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Cathy, I think it is okay now too. Happy New Year
DeleteI think your block looks great!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ellen, I am loving it now too, and am really looking forward to making it again in another colour. I love triangles of all sizes. AND basket blocks.
DeleteThe colours work. Interesting goings on in the background fabric - music and confetti - looks like a party to me.
ReplyDeleteThank you Nell, it does look like a party...that is how I feel when I get to spend all day in the studio. Right now I am living for the weekends!!
DeleteI love the background too!
ReplyDeleteThank you Cathy. I have a few other musical themed b/w and will have fun using them around the quilt. Thanks for stopping by and for leaving a comment. Happy New Year
DeleteAngela just wants us to use our scraps and have fun and is enabling us to do so! I think your block looks great. I will be using dark blue to make my churn dash blocks -- even if it's not the 'correct' blue, it's the 'right' blue for my blocks! ;-)
ReplyDeletethank you Lynne, just the pep talk I needed. btw...I love Churn Dash Blocks, one of the very first blocks that I fell in love with over 30 years ago. Perennial favourite. Happy New Year
DeleteGreat block--- any scrap used is good -- no matter the shade! Glad you were able to make the block.
ReplyDeleteThank you Angela, I am persevering and have made a few more to share on Saturday. That's me now...living for the weekend. Happy New Year
DeleteLooks good to me!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sheila. I am really liking it now too, and I am already plotting and planning strips and cornerstones ahead on how it will go into the 'master-plan' for the finished quilt. Happy New Year
DeleteWhat fun music fabric to go with your scraps! That block looks lovely!
ReplyDeletethank you Pattilou. It will be fun to see just how much more and different kinds of music fabric I have. Thanks again for stopping by and leaving a comment.
