At the Corner of Scrap and Quilts : Double Halo

Monday, 2 September 2024

It's a Flimsy!

Double Halo is finally a flimsy and I couldn't wait to share it with you.

I rush to sew the skinny sashing and haste makes waste. The sashing did not align properly.

And not just once but all of them. Argh!

An emergency call was sent to the Super Seam Ripper and eventually, it got done properly before the long weekend was over.

Oh, My! The aqua block and the blue block are basically all the same colour. And the purple one is nothing but purple. Let's try in a sunny spot.

Yes, that's better. I love it so much. (The quilt is bumpy because the grass is long ... and wet.)

The centre star doesn't have the same fabric as the stars, only the same colour. (The square in a square uses a piece of the M&M millennium print, yes. Haha.) Click on the picture to zoom in.

The first block I did was the red star and I didn't calculate how big a scrap I needed to make this block. I just wing it as I usually do. Well, yes, I ran out of red. Most of the readers said they couldn't see the difference so, here it is.
