I finally got my fabric washed last night - about half of it was washed and I have found recently that I get stuffed up using fabric not washed so now the rest is washed.
I originally picked these fabrics :
But I wasn't crazy about my grey(at the far end), it is a mottled green/grey/pinky. I am using yellow instead of purple. The greens and blues are much brighter than they show here.
I went back to my stash as I was determined to not go shopping and I found this great black with some white so I am using it as my grey and it feels right..................so will see if it works:
On to Clue 1 released yesterday. Four patches which will be made with black and black on white in my case. Here are some strips sewn together; I think this is enough for half of what is required.
Here they are cut into twosies.
And...........the first few 4 patches. I love them and hope to get the rest sewn tomorrow.
The black looks very crisp with your black on white fabric. I think your gray would have washed out with your b/whites as they look a bit grey in the photo. Great choice. I've started but had to buy grey fabric, heck I probably would have had to buy black to have enough! The blocks look great so far!
ReplyDeleteGreat Constant!
ReplyDeleteI'm still working on twosies, work keeps interfering with my real life :)

Great to see your colours. I am getting started today with my grey and white with black prints. I love the colours Bonnie is using this year so I no plans to change it. I think your will be great. Yellow!
ReplyDeleteYour white/black prints are cute. I have 3 of them...oldies but goodies!
