Our host for SAHRR: Prompt 6 is Emily at The Darling Dogwood. Her choice is kite block or any quilt block starting with your first initial. It's okay to repeat the first initial block. I decided to stick with the kite block! I was searching for the 'how' of the making of a kite block and then I remembered that I had purchased the small periwinkle aka kite shape template from Missouri Star Quilt Company to use when I get to my spider web blocks/quilt. A quick search found this tutorial, the Stretched Periwinkle. I simply downsized the measurements to fit a charm/ 5 inch cut square.
In no time, I had a pretty good stack of kite blocks. You might noticed, I didn't take the paper off the template.
I'm still feeling this is a 'hot mess'.
I'm thinking about adaptions/changes to make so I like it more. :)
Sharing today with Emily at The Darling Dogwood.
I'm sure you will get it all organized to your liking. The center is very organized so I think you will get it all ship shape.
ReplyDeleteGreat job of finding the template! lol The kite blocks look great! I love the center-you will figure out how to tame those additional rounds to be beautiful!

ReplyDeleteExcellent work. It all looks so good.
ReplyDeleteGreat kite blocks! I had forgotten that it is also known as the Periwinkle block; I should have mentioned that. I have found that some SAHRR quilts and components need to percolate longer than others. I'm confident you'll come up with something you love using the pieces you have.
