It's that time again when we get to share progress on our Modern Round Robin Bee! Our Bee is being generously sponsored by Fluffy Sheep Quilting and to be in with a chance to win this month's €20 voucher please link up your progress on the Bee and any medallion quilts you might be working on!
We hit a bit of a bottleneck this month as our intrepid traveller Cynthia returned home and blitzed 3 blocks super fast. Thank you for such happy post this month!
I received these two lovely quilts in progress along with Cynthia's starting block.
I sketched out a few ideas and finally settled on growing them very minimally with arrows and corners in as close a grey I had on hand.
The second block got a bit of an extension treatment and the half square triangles became flying geese. Nothing too dramatic!
So that's been my progess this month - still brainstroming what to add to Cynthia's amazing circle block. I've turned to Sherri Lynn Wood's Improv Handbook for Modern Quilters for inspiration.
It's helping! I think I have an idea of where to go now and need to have a fabric rummage to see what colours I can come up with!
How about you guys - what progress have you made this month? Please join up with the linky party and random number generator will pick a winner next week for our very generous prize from Fluffy Sheep Quilting!

ReplyDeleteThanks Leda - it helped massively in adding to Cynthia's block - must write up a review of it and add it to the library!
