Ice Cream colours - this is the the swap theme!
Earlier this month some of the ladies from the PP Forum each bought 1 metre of fabric.
This is mine - blackcurrant sorbet!
We sliced it into two and a half inch strips and sent it off for swapping.
We each received 14 delicious colours in return.
With my strips I decided to make the Bento Box blocks and found there was just enough to make one block with two complete strips. That gave me 7 blocks, which is a funny number for a quilt, so I dashed out to my LQS and bought some extra 'flavours' to make it up to 9 blocks.
I'm just wondering what to do next. Should I put in sashings, or just a fairly wide border? The blocks are 12" so the quilt measures 36" at the moment.
They look yummy and I love the Bento Boxes you have done so far. How about putting them on point??? lol Jan
ReplyDeleteI always look for the easiest way to do things. I'd sew the blocks together, then find a dark trim and sew it on top of the seams for a narrow accent/sashing look. Then a border, but not too wide.
