Block #2 is finished!
However, I feel like I really need to get a Butler Bulldog scrap to add to this block. My friends and I stayed up until about 1am watching the Bulldogs win and make it into the Sweet Sixteen! Since their colors are Blue & White, I think it would be a perfect fit.
Indiana is a HUGE basketball state and whenever one our teams is doing well, the town goes a little crazy. Butler has now made it to the Final Four, so we are excited about the game this Saturday. The best part, for me, about watching these games is that one of my oldest friends' husband is the assistant coach at Butler, so it is fun to try to watch for them on TV.
Here are the first two blocks next to each other. Good things there is no deadline on this one because I am definitely taking my sweet time!
I'm linking up with Quilt Story's Fabric Tuesday Linky Party.
Those are awesome! Are you making the top seperate or are you quilting as you go?
ReplyDeleteThey look AWESOME!! I am working on my yellow block today. I hope it turns out as nice as yours!! :) Great work!
ReplyDeleteSimply fabulous! I love all the fussy cut pieces and the sheer amount of pieces you have on these blocks! I am now wishing I had more pieces on mine!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! You need to stop posting such lovely pics, it's really not helping my willpower to stay away from this QAL.....I'm way too over-committed and must resist!! Lol! Can't wait to see the next blocks :-)
ReplyDeleteI love your blocks! And, congrats on Butler making it to the Final Four! (I live in the Houston area -- hee hee! -- want to come visit??)
ReplyDeleteThis looks so nice! I saw this QAL - looks like fun! I don't have NEARLY enough scraps to cover all the colors, but maybe one day I will be able to join in on this fun! =)
ReplyDeleteOh wow, love your blocks! You've got so many great scraps on them both.
ReplyDeletethose scrappy blocks are awesome! Its so neat to see such tiny tiny scraps displayed this way, cant wait to see more!!
ReplyDeleteBoth blocks look great! I have a thing for owls, what kind of fabric is the one with the little owl???
ReplyDeleteWow...those two blocks are incredible!

I like how you have lots of fabrics on your bottled rainbows! I also like your pincushions on your banner!
ReplyDeleteLove your bottled rainbows, they are gorgeous. And my 2 year old loves your pincushions, she's practically leaping through the computer to get to them. (i like them too, I think i have them favorited on flickr)
ReplyDeleteThose are absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks look GREAT! Love 'em. Thanks for linking up to WIP Wednesday, have a productive week! : )
ReplyDeletethey are beautiful and each block looks as if it was telling a story
ReplyDeleteFantastic blocks. Love the fabric choices and fussy cutting.
ReplyDeleteI googled bottled rainbow quilt and found your blog. I'm just learning about this wonderful idea and have collected all my materials. I can't wait to start my own. Your blocks are beautiful. I hope I can be as patient as you and have so many small pieces on mine!

it's so cute! I so want to make one of these! Thanks for linking up to Quilt Story!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving your blocks! I'd love to make one of these bottled rainbow quilts but I have next to no scraps as I'm such a new sewer. One day...
