Did you get your book yet? I am loving mine :)
This weeks official post is over at Natalie's blog natalie-ever-after.blogspot.com. (more HERE)
She will be sharing hints and tips about fabric selection and the yardage requirements.
I have decided to use all of my colorful solid scraps for this project. They are all of the colors from the rainbow. I have also decided to use various shades of grey for the background. (I AM SUPER EXCITED)
My official blog posts come later, but each Monday, I will share my progress :)
I have decided on my layout. I am going to do things a little differently than the book suggest. I am going to enlarge 3 of the applique blocks to 18" and 7 more the of applique blocks to 12". The rest of the blocks will remain 6". I do have to add 3 more 6" blocks, which I am excited about :)
Barbie, over at thequiltingmill.blogspot.com also has different plans for her layout. She is making hers into a medallion. It is going to be AMAZING!!!
Here are the blocks that I have completed this week.
