Back again with August block to add to my collection for the Growing Up QAL, hosted by Alida over at Alida Tweloq Designs.
This month is the Bargello technique, which was actually quite fun! Because my fabric choices for this QAL are red/white/blue, I played with color arrangements EQ7 before deciding on this layout for those colors. What started as this strip set,
ended as this block.
At first, it seemed silly to cut two strips the same color, then sew them back together. But using rectangles in a Bargello won't work. Had to tell myself to let it go, and follow the instructions. And I'm pretty happy with the results! Are you sewing along? If so, I'd love to hear from you! Have a great weekend!
That turned out really well. I am getting excited to see all of your blocks together. I still haven't made this block yet. I just have a few days left!

ReplyDeleteThis looks so clean and modern! A full quilt with this block and color scheme would be fantastic! Thanks for sharing!!
