I've been looking forward to red and had all of my red strips and charms ready to go this month for RSC13 block making. Here are 8 Crossroads blocks (tutorial HERE) laid out on the floor.
It is SO energizing to sew with red!
I tried to use a wide range of reds from red/white to maroon.
Later this month I look forward to playing around with 8 months of color on my design wall and will definitely share some pictures.
Guess who is visiting this weekend? Here are Tucker and Jax enjoying the morning view...
with J-Meow in the adjacent window. Birds and squirrels anyone? We are heading out to a family get together for the rest of the day - Happy Saturday to all!
