Blocks in Blue
I finished up my blue blocks for RSC13 this week. I have always loved blue & white together so it is no surprise that I really enjoyed making these blocks!
I made 8 Birds in the Air blocks (tutorial found HERE). I pulled out my teal/aqua charms but left in my light blues because I like the interest they give the blocks and I have plenty more light blues in my stash.
And I finished the last 3 Crossroads blocks (tutorial found HERE) for a total of 8.
Five months into this challenge and I'm still loving these blocks and enjoying this challenge so much! I wonder what color we will be creating with in June...

Already thinking about June? It does look like you have gotten a lot done with your blue. Love how the crossroads blocks are all looking as a collection.
ReplyDeleteBoth of these are lovely works! I really like birds in the air with the blue against the white and Crossroads is one I've never seen--uh-oh--more to add to my list...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteVery pretty blocks. Blue and white is one of my favorite combinations too. I've actually done 2 blue and white quilts for myself in the past year. I am really looking forward to seeing how your crossroads blocks will all go together.
ReplyDeleteYour birds in the air blocks are going to be an awesome quilt.
ReplyDeleteLove all your blocks! I'm making a crossroads block each month, but think I might continue making them next year for a quilt top.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fabrics and blocks!
ReplyDeleteBoth of these blue & white quilts will be stunning!
Yes - yes - yes - loving all your blue and white blocks!
ReplyDeleteStunning really describes your blocks well. Im still catching up with my blues!
ReplyDeleteLove both of those quilts. I think I'm going to have to try the birds in the air. I like that layout you have going.
ReplyDeleteAll of your blue & white blocks look fabulous!
ReplyDeleteJust love how your Birds in the Air blocks are looking, so crisp.
ReplyDeleteLove both sets of blocks. I haven't made any blocks for RSC this year (boo hoo) but I would have left my light blue scraps in too because they add that little bit of extra interest!
ReplyDeleteIt's so fun, eh?!?
ReplyDeleteThe birds blocks do have a lot of interest and movement...beautifuL!
Great blocks! I love looking at all of the fabrics - so much variety!
ReplyDeleteOooooo - gorgeous!!! I just love blue and white - so classic and beautiful! I left the light blues in mine too, you have to have them to sparkle up the cobalts :*)
ReplyDeleteLoving those blues and whites. They are so striking and you've done a beautiful job combining a variety of values!
