Remember January = Blue? One of the projects that I took on was blue slabs and the creation of a slab quilt, so named by Cheryl Arkison, author of Sunday Morning Quilts. My friend Kerri saw my completed top and just knew that she wanted to use it to practice her LA ruler work. How could I turn down such an offer? Well, I don't think she needs much more practice. This quilt is now phenomenal (click on the photo for a closer view). Binding will be sewing on tonight.
I am sooooo close to having my RRCB completed. I showed it last night at my bee group and my good friends asked so innocently..."do you want to know if you have a piece in backwards"? Are you kidding me. So un-sew I did, and now I believe I have it. Not ready to show in the wider audience yet...but one day soon.
To catch up on other passionate purples, head on over to SoScrappy here.
Love and hugs

Really nice purple CN block--and your slab quilt is so lovely--all those blues to turquoise melting into one another...really great! Hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your kind words. I really like the Carrie Nation block. That would have made another great block to do in a rainbow of colours too! So many quilts, so little time. The Slab Block is really fun to do as well and can really gobble up all the scraps.
DeleteYour purple block is so pretty. Love the purples you used.
ReplyDeletethank you. These purples are great together, and it wasn't until I did this block that I pulled them from the bag and thought...aha! these will do just fine.
