 Block ????

A Bevy of Beautiful (and not quite so beautiful) Bats ....



Im gradually understanding how to put this block together so you have mistakes up there as well, but am enjoying it very much.

Its Pieced ...YAY ... and I did wonder about doing a one off BOM of this in preparation for Halloween in a month or so's time.

What I do understand is that a black bat on a dark background, no matter how beautiful a blue, purple or whatever coloured fabric, will not show up ... so I changed one to a grey bat ... What do you think ...likey??? No likey???

Should I do a few more grey ???

and of course there is always one rebel!!!!

Well When I was making these D9P's My friends daughter was having her first baby, a girl ... so one of the quilts was made for her.

It was made just after her birth but took a few months before it was finally gifted as her Dad took it over to Canada with him when he went to visit this month.

Today I got the photo we all want ... of lil Juno enjoying her quilt ...

AUGUST  BONUS CLUE

Fire and ocean
Enemies so long
Who build together an island
When left alone
A wizard in the middle
Who causes the strife
Ask him what he desires:
A wife or her life?

But I'm intrigued by the idea of anti glue needles

Probably coated with silicone ?!
