I did some hoop work for a swap mate. This only took an hour because I kept forgetting to change the threads.
Next, I decided to use these two fabrics which I found in my stash while refolding the other day.
Note the geometric (ahem) design in the top fabric. Sorry, that a private joke with one of my blogging friends.
I thought the geometric fabric would be a great one to start a stash busting project. So far I've sewn fifty-six 5 inch blocks. I used a foundation sew and flip method.
Love it...... no seams to match... just my style.
Great embroidery heart. Please send me the source when you get a chance. I love the colors of your stash busting project.
ReplyDeleteLOVE love love that embroidery heart.
ReplyDeleteI too love what you are doing with the hearts. Love your block!!
ReplyDeleteDeeply from your heart! That´s what it says!
ReplyDeleteLovely!
String blocks (always on foundations) are my favourite go to blocks - when I want to use up scraps, when I want to make blocks without stress, and when I just want to sit and sew without having to worry about accuracy or colour matching - I love them! Whatever colour comes next out of the scrap bin - is what goes onto the block - no worries!
