**Next Block Wednesday **

This sew along theme is inspired by a 'Summer Soiree'.

soi·rée /swäˈrā/
"The definition of a soirée is a gathering or get-together, especially a posh or elegant one. A soiree is an elegant and intimate affair. It is an evening party held in a private house. While ambient music plays, guests engage in a variety of private conversation."

Doesn't that sounds like fun for a summer night? Each week our block will have a theme of something to do with an evening party!

***Fabric I'm using***
I'm using the Figs & Shirtings fat quarter bundle + background fabric from my friend Joanna. You will have some left over. I am so excited about using this fabric! I love that splash of black!

You do not have to use the same fabric as me. You can use any fabric you like

Figs & Shirtings fabric, pick up your favorite for backing! - https://shrsl.com/2ymo4
Background for Summer Soiree https://shrsl.com/2ymo6
