Sewing for fun

I've been playing around with a design for fun!  I'm using a few blocks from our Curve it Up pattern.  Here is the last layout I came up with.


Here is another one....


I challenged myself to only use prints.  Fun too.

I think maybe a combination of both is what I'm after now.  More prints...less solid.  

My plan is to make four and when sewed together have a super fun quilt!  Maybe a QAL...??

  1. Fantastic, what fun. I bet these would look great in hand dyed fabrics too

  2. Wow! Gorgeous block! I've made a Curve It Up quilt so I was trying to pick out which blocks you combined. I can identify two of them. Not sure about the rest.

  4. Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!! Oh my goodness!!! They look like vintage Christmas ornaments. I can almost see the bubble lights percolating among the boughs.

  6. They appear to be something I would see if on a trek to India. A very eye-catching piecing for sure!

  8. The first block interests me in it's complexity but the color combination doesn't appeal to me. The second block is really stunning - holds my interest both shape and color wise. Wow !

  13. That sounds great! I love the print one. I think you marveled at using prints and they're striking. This could be a center medallion for another quilt design too :).

  15. Very cool blocks, Jenny! In reds and greens, they could resemble vintage Christmas ornaments, but in jewel tones or spicey hues they could have a really fun Indian or Moroccan vibe. Shouldn't you ALWAYS be sewing for fun? When you're "just playing around" is always when you come up with the best ideas.
