Block #15 Fort Sumter
As you can tell from the photograph, I am losing the points of the squares on the sides of the block. Oh well, it's the correct size so, that's life! I love the fabric in the centre!
A quick and easy block to sew and it came together perfectly
...gotta love that!
Here are my blocks to date placed on pointe on my design wall:
I'm loving the addition of the brown enough to keep going with this sampler, and have finished about half of the blocks posted so far.
WOW! I think they look wonderful!
ReplyDeleteIt is looking good--and the brown was a good choice. I love that focus fabric in the "pointless" block!
ReplyDeleteI love it. Blue and brown is one of my favourite colour combos. Your blocks look wonderful.
ReplyDeleteKathy, Great addition of the brown! They do make a good combo for this quilt.
ReplyDeleteThese blocks look lovely. I like the browns. I am thinking of doing a scrapy with teal and browns.
ReplyDeleteThose blocks are absolutely gorgeous! The colors are on my favorite's list.
ReplyDeleteI want to sew some of these! I ordered some new Civil War fabrics with one of my Gift Certificates from the BIG BOX that I got from the McCall's contest online sponsors. It came this week and I'll have to count all of it on Sunday Stash report unless I sew Civil War on Saturday...
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are looking Great!
The brown was the perfect addition to your collection of blocks!
ReplyDeleteLove your blocks!! The addition of brown is wonderful. Great fabrics in both of these blocks.
ReplyDeletepoints, schmoints, who cares when there is all this blue and brown goodness to gaze at?
ReplyDeleteohhh those are looking so good!
ReplyDeleteThe center of your first block is one of my favorite fabrics too. But I just look at mine and can't cut into it (yet). You've showcased it in a perfect block.
ReplyDeleteThe browns + blues are so rich together! Great fabric selections, and you're making great progress.
Oh yes...the brown is a nice addition! Blues and Browns; can't go wrong with that combinations! Specially since your "center" fabric on two blocks have brown.
ReplyDeleteI wish it was still Wednesday! LOL Your latest blocks are gorgeous. I think the brown is a positive addition to the blocks. Fort Sumter is the one block I have left to do to catch up.
ReplyDeleteI love this quilt. The brown is perfect.
ReplyDeleteThe blue and brown is a great color combination. Very pretty blocks!
ReplyDeleteI love the combination of colours you have chosen for the CW Quilt....Warm Regards, Lyn
ReplyDeleteI have a Civil War quilt on the docket. I have probably enough fabric to make 2 Queen sized quilts. Your blocks are really cool. I had been debating a pattern for my quilt and recently decided on Sampler. It's cool to see someone else doing it, too!
