I haven't been linking up to the BOMs Away Mondays.
In fact, it has been an entire month (I checked!)
And, I blame it all on soccer season! (Soccer is getting the blame for a lot of things that aren't getting done!)
I currently have 3 BOM-ish projects right now.
The first is Morgan's Sampler, which currently has 6 completed blocks.
Hhhmmmm! That actually means that I am 2 blocks ahead! I don't feel so neglectful now.
The second is my Sow Along with Randy. I have been trying to get caught up on that but haven't made any progress since last week when I got multiple blocks cut and bagged.
Well, I did manage to get 2 sets sewn.
The third is my true BOM. It's Craftsy's Block of the Month. I have my hexies basted for the first block...and I bought some more background fabric. Other than that, I haven't done much with them.
I haven't even bothered to take a new picture! I'll try and fix that.
What I am working (like crazy) on is the T Shirt Quilt! But, I'm stumped! I will be tipping the blocks and squaring them to 16 1/2", but these are the colors (and some arrangements) that I am working on.
PLEASE! Leave me a comment with your suggestions for the color layout!
Upside-down, but you can see the border fabric |
Layout Option 1 |
Layout Option 2 |
Layout Option 3 |
Layout Option 4 |
This is where I always seem to get stuck...I tend to create a pattern. Random is difficult for me. I would love to get your opinion! I only have 1 or 2 pictures with the inner border (red) and the outer border (multi-floral). The color suggestions from Darren's cousin were to use blue & orange. I did my best and I really like the color combinations. I hope she does too!
Thanks so much for your help!

Wow you have been busy. Great blocks!
ReplyDeleteNice work again! :-) I think about Layout 3, it seems to me to be the best arrangement of the blocks. :-)
ReplyDeleteI really like option #3, how about adding a black sashing around the blocks? I like your BOM blocks too!
ReplyDeleteI like 4 the best, because None of the oranges touch. I might swap the red and teal blocks in the lower left corner, but otherwise, call it good!
