MONTH 1 Share Your Progress

[Rose O.]

Here are my month 1 blocks. It was hard to get started on the right path at first. I cut the 4" square at 4.5 as I wasn't paying attention to which FABRIC Barbara was talking about. Then when squaring up the flying geese, missed the edge of the ruler and ran over my finger and nail. The finger is healed, and nail growing so all ended well...yowza.

The colors look amazing ! Nice work !

I wavered on this project until I remembered I had a stack of fabric from a project years ago that I never got to, and probably never will. there were a few of the browns, blacks and creams, so I only had to purchase a couple of fabrics to go with it. It might be a bit more scrappy but I am hoping the colours will still work out and give the desired effect at the end.
I have only done the "Colour my World" BOM which was great. I would have loved to have done 2024 but after falling off my bike and breaking bones that was the end of that, so I am really enthusiastic now about this year.

What a great idea!

[Rose O.]

Your blocks look great!

[Pat A.]

Here's my two blocks. I'm not using the kit.

[Linda Lee]

Using my own stash.

I am using most of my own fabric and have created a color chart. Now that I have that figured out, I will begin to work on my blocks for this month. I hope everyone had a great day!

[Barbara B.]

That is a great chart. And easily allows you to add some additional fabrics throughout the year should you find others you like and want to add.

Thanks Barbara!

I’m using my own fabrics with a little different orientation

My greatest progress this month was creating my own flying geese rule since I could not order the Bloc Loc, I used multiple layers of tape to create ridges and placed them accordingly. Works like a charm!
