Marny here…time for Part 2. See Part 1 here.
This is where we left off. Since this layout is cute, finishing seems right. |
One thing to be aware of is these two units are not the same height, therefore some trimming needs to take place to make the layout work. Just ½'' is trimmed from all the taller units. |
The two middle rows are pretty straightforward now that they are trimmed. |
Units in the middle rows are sewn. (Just rows are sewn, the rows are not sewn to one another yet. They need background pieces sewn to their sides/ends still.) |
Note the ends of the rows do not line up exactly. The rows need to be staggered just a bit to keep the dark verticals where they belong. |
More background pieces added. The narrow strips are 2 ½'' wide and long enough to extend beyond the interior rows. The two inserted between the color units in the top and bottom rows are 2 ½'' x 6 ½''. The eight "square" background pieces are all 4 ½'' tall, four are 5'' wide and four are 4 ½'' wide. The rows are ready to complete and be sewn to one another. |
Till Tuesday…cooler weather is returning so…
I like your blocks!
