New (& Old) Quilt-a-Long Blocks

I finally finished week 10's block (after having to totally redo the interior pinwheel due to a cutting error):



You can't really tell from the picture, but the color of that fish fabric is really great. It's a very vivid aquamarine. I think it will add a nice touch to the finished quilt. And because the terrible pictures from my last post were seriously bothering me, I took some new ones:




Not that they're much better, really.

Here are all of my blocks so far:



Only 4 more blocks to go!

And finally, just because I got a better picture of it, the first week of the Designer Mystery BOM (again):

  2. That block #10 is my favourite in her quilt-along, and the turqouise fish fabric really shows off the star well.
    The designer BOM block looks really difficult! The fabrics are yum!

  4. So you're making one quilt with the blocks from both quilt-alongs?

  5. I REALLY appreciate and relate to the fact that all your fabrics are facing the same direction... especially evidenced in Block #10. I first noticed the fish fabric's right direction, but then you also note the Raspberry Raindrops are facing the same direction.

    Nice. Neat touch. :D

  7. Awesome color combo! You are a bold designer. I love how the fabrics have a matching personality and yet very disparate colors, it all goes so well.

    I took a wrong turn at week 4 and need to get back on track. I will have to squeeze 8 weeks into one. good luck, huh?
