Completed Month 2. I used machine applique. I need the practice as I am not as experienced with this method.

Well I finished the arc pattern, it went fast once I selected my fabrics. It was a challenge but it keeps me motivated.Last edited by Barbara; 10-19-2021, 07:30 PM. Reason: I’m switching the top and bottom arcs I’m changing the brown is one to top and moving the cream to the bottom to balance light and darkComment

A rainy week in Malvern, England, so have managed to catch up with my blocks. Lovely to see other people's lovely blocks.Comment

I used toned down colors for Kaleidoscope blocks, so that eyes can rest right next to the busy pineapple blocks. Tried to create a color wheel for my NYB points. Blue was the most difficult ones despite of so many scraps I own (My friends donate me, too.)
I like Alex's sampler with many batiks very much. What I try to achieve is recreating the "feel" without using many batiks.Comment

I’ve done New York Beauty blocks before so I sailed through them. I found that by putting dark sashing, or filler strips I could integrate my orange kaleidoscope blocks that I found too dark before. I also added a house block, to show that this is my covid quilt. I hadn’t made one yet.
On to the flying geese!
I tried about 10 layouts before settling on this one, with dark filler strips in between some of the blocks.
The orangy-yellow border will probably be thinner than this, but I had this 2.5” one already in my scraps so wanted to see if it would work as a color, and the length was just right too! It is a good day!
