Stacks of Blocks

I had a ridiculous amount of blue scraps for 16 patches, so my block count this week is a little wild.  This stack is 269 blocks.


Last week, we dyed fabric and tshirts.  It took me a long time to rinse and soak everything this time.  The Assistant wants some curtains in her bedroom at college, so we made some textured red and blue squares.



 I have less turquoise scraps than blue, so next month will be a little less wild!

Wow - that is a LOT of little blocks! Those hand dyed squares are really fabulous. You got some great texture.

That is a lot of blocks! Hopefully it emptied your scrap bin pretty well.

So many blue blocks! Hopefully the turquoise in July will be easier to get a handle on. Blue is just so easy to overdue!

The hand dyed/tie dyed fabric is luscious. Looks you and your assistant had a great time.

Your productivity astounds me, Katie! As for only having a few turquoise scraps... Didn't you use all of those up last year? If you need more, just ask! I'd be happy to put a care package together for you.

I love the shade of red you got with your dyeing!

August Block Count

 I thought I wrote this, but it seems to be lost somewhere or I never wrote it at all… August was a quiet block month, with only 42 16-patch...
