July's BOM - Churn Dash +

[Iminei]

Beautiful, as ever @Sheilago  ... Run along and put the kettle on in the BOMHOF now ...

[Sheilago]

Will do @Iminei ! I’ve made some scones, in the hope of some much needed social contact! Cream, jam?

[Bjay]

Hope this is Ok. Had to 'make do' on some fabric




This is with the bcking fabric I have - hope I have enough

[Iminei]

Lovely Bjay ... just The Churn Dash+ to make and you can be one of the first to snaffle one of Sheilago's scones ...

The wonderful thing about QAYG is that you only need squares an inch or so larger than your block for the backing as opposed to great swathes of yardage .... which means you could get the backing for a block out of a FQ.

We're up to 10 blocks now peeps ... just two more to go, but of course I might throw in a couple more so you will be able to choose your favourites for your quilt.

In addition having the extra blocks means you could go for a 16 blocks quilt (4 x 4) the 12 we originally aimed for (3 x 4) or even a diddy 9 block quilt (3 x 3)

If you're worried about backing fabric, Why not mix it up a bit ???

The first July one. This quilt is going to be like Dolly Parton's coat of many colours.

Run along then SG ... The Party is just getting going ...

I've caught up with the latest two, and I think I might have found some fabric which would be OK for the backing, but no quilting done yet.

@Sandra That second one make me think of a set of children's wooden building blocks 

Here's my Jacob's Ladder. Haven't done the Czardas yet, I've been using up some practice blocks to make a cushion.

[Iminei]

Beautiful Girls, @Sandra run along and join Sheilago in the BOMHOF then ...


@Flobear   ... Czardas   ????

[Flobear]

@Iminei Churn Dash sounds as if it should be a lively Hungarian folk dance 

[Iminei]

or traditional Hungarian speciality dish that you really dont want to know the ingredients of ....

[Flobear]

Here's my Hungarian Speciality Dish/Folk Dance 



I think what's slightly odd about this block is that none of the same colours are adjacent, they all meet only at points.

[Iminei]

Off you pop then Flobear into the BOMHOF with you ...

[supergran]

I did my Hungarian thingy today and decided I hated it so I'm doing another one tomorrow. If I put an inch or so of background round it, it should be ok to go into the backing. I think.

Up to now I have just used yellow fabric without thinking about it too much. I realised I need to echo what has gone before in the next few Blocks.
So thinking about that churn one I decided to use the fabric with large spots - nope - only small scraps so I set out the blocks so far to see what I could use  :thinking:

To my surprise it's beginning to look like something and not just Blocks
