I got busy yesterday and decided that I am done with Moda Blockheads. I finished all but one 12 inch block, which I will do today. I have my setting all planned out.
I need to cut out my setting pieces, but the fabric is all starched and ready to cut, so I am good to go. It is just a matter of laying things out and sewing the sections together. I haven't finished Jubilee yet, so that project may have to come off the design wall and go back up next week.
I have a bee in my bonnet to get this one done!
If you haven't been living under a rock, you have probably heard some buzz about Lella Boutique's new Halloween collection "Hey Boo". It is absolutely adorable and has a twist I haven't seen in a Halloween collection. That would be the addition of the color pink!
Vanessa Goertzen of Lella Boutique has the Midas touch when it comes to fabulous fabric collections, and her latest group "Hey Boo" is no exception. It has all the expected Halloween colors, black, orange, cream, a touch of green...and then she threw in some hot pink. The result is adorable, fun, and completely new. I can't wait to do something with this beautiful fabric. I even bought a coordinating background to go with it!
I hope you all have a great weekend. Come back Monday, and fingers crossed, my Moda Blockheads 5 will be all sewn together!
Smart idea to go ahead & finish up the Blockheads top rather than letting it languish in a tub as a UFO. If you're really unhappy with it you could always donate it somewhere as a raffle item or to someone who could use a cozy quilt. I'm going to look for Hey Boo to see how she incorporated pink in a Halloween fabric collection. Have a good weekend!
