It is starting to look like a serious quilt here. There are now 21 of the Arrowhead blocks sewn and 4 of the Old Italian blocks for a grand total of
25. . The nice thing about making the Italian blocks is that when you cut them out you get pieces for two blocks - a positive and a negative version. So I need to concentrate on making those at this point.

Those multi color batiks can make the blocks look distorted a bit. I find that interesting - but I am not changing them.
I have other things going on now also so it may be a couple of days before I get back to these. Meanwhile, have a wonderful weekend.

What a fun-looking set of blocks! I know you love batiks, too! Can't wait to see it finished.
ReplyDeleteIt looks GREAT! I like the addition of the Old Italian Blocks - and, to me, any "distortion" is part of the charm of batiks - ;))
ReplyDeleteVery pretty color combos.
ReplyDeleteIt is looking great, Gene. So the Italian blocks are serendipitous...lucky, no waste!
ReplyDeletePretty! Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteLoving the batiks, and no, don't ever change something interesting!
ReplyDeleteI love the look of the two blocks together.
ReplyDeleteDo you send your tops out for quilting or do you do it yourself Gene?
