Each Block in Grandma's Kitchen will be a memory or event. I was outside hanging blocks to do photos, and that inspired this weeks block name....
'Wash Day'! Did your grandma have a certain 'day' to do wash? In my story I tell you the story of my grandma's and washers... remember I had one modern and one 'not so modern' grandma!
Fabric Placement FAQ
- Several people wrote me to ask where I am using the fabrics from my pastel bundle & 3 extra fabrics I purchased (see it here)
- Generally the white is backgrounds, you can see my blocks HERE
- I have used the silver check & the green stripe in several of the blocks.
- I am working from the FQ bundle which is WAY more fabric than I need, i wanted to have variety and that gives it to me.
- I won't use all the fabric I'm working from.. it's my fabric 'paint palette'. And the larger pieces are so that I get consistency across blocks.
- Does that help?
This is our first '10" finished block'. I have a few photos to show you how I layout everything when sewing to keep it straight.
I am using these design boards to keep track.
It really helps me so I don't twist & turn pieces by accident
Place the last piece and then follow the sewing order in my pattern
I am getting back to doing the blocks in my Sunday Drive fabrics, I am excited to be doing the 2nd colorway!
