Here is block #11 from the Bloggers' BOM organized by Jackie. This beautiful split Ohio Star comes from Ms. Bumblebeans herself Victoria. I love this block and can see many possibilities for exploration with it... Like my others it is made from lots o' dots and KF scraps. May have to make this one over as my points are going to get chopped off slightly when the quilt is assembled. Have no idea where I went wrong but it was one of those sewing days when I couldn't do a thing right. It actually took me three tries to cut a simple 4" square out of one of the fabrics. I knocked the iron off the table and tripped over the dog. Anyone who lives near me will be pleased to know that I don't need to drive today. If this morning is any indication, operating a car does not seem like a good idea... All one can do is laugh!

Ha Ha - we all have those crazy days!! Love the polka dots, great combo on this block.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ellen! Don't know what's going on today. Glad I don't fly a commercial jet for a living!
DeleteI love your white with the Kaffe prints. And I love cut-off points!
ReplyDeleteWell thanks LeeAnn! Guess the unfussy cut colliding dots don't bother you either... ;)
DeleteStaying home to sew sounds like heaven to me!
ReplyDeleteAgreed, although at this rate I'll sew over my hand! Hope you get a stolen sewing day soon too!
DeleteOh my, what a day!
