Blockheads Update

The Blockheads project saw some progress this past week. The bird house from week #22 was a cute little appliqued block. It took me a while to figure out the order in which to stitch the pieces, but I got it figured out and am pretty happy with how it ended up. I added some bird feet since it just looked like he was slipping right off the roof... so now he's firmly grounded!




Block #25 is called "Twice the Friendship". It was easy to sew when you follow the directions. I changed the light and dark pieces in order to feature the brown fabric that my friend Deanna recently sent me. And half way through cutting the block pieces, I forgot that I had made that change! So I have lots of extra pieces already cut for a future block.

Here is my version of the 25 Blockhead patterns posted so far...


Linking up to Sew Fresh Quilts!

  5. Good looking bunch of blocks! Your reversed colorway block turned out very appealing, in spite of the extra pieces you generated. :)
