So how did Sew Day with QOV group go?!
Well, all I can say, in my defense, is that I still have island breezes blowing through my brain! I was supposed to make blue stars with a white background and I made it in reverse. Then after I had made 4 of these blocks, I realized that they were big--12 1/2" big and NOT the 8 1/2" size the pattern called for.
What in the world? How long have I been quilting?!?!?!?
I READ the instructions again and realized my error--the center block is correct at 4 1/2" but the other squares around it were NOT 4 1/2" , too.
Oh.
I put these blocks away to become another project someday.
Then I bought some more fabric and will make the catch-up blocks today!!!! The 4-patches Mary made were just right!
And we had a great time with everyone!
I also needed some fabric to make the red stars. I can see that having the group meet in our local quilt shop can become a budget buster! lol
And as long as we were there, we bought our ALL FLORIDA SHOP HOP TICKETS and some new fabric to get in the mood!
Even though those squares are opposite colors, they sure are pretty! I love seeing your projects.
