plaid

september was parikha’s month in pollen8. notice it’s november and I’m finally showing these. we’ve gotten a little behind in our bee and I take full responsibility. no one told me that asking for improv blocks would place fear in everyone’s heart. I’ve gotten a couple of blocks back from my month, but everyone else is hiding from me. 🙂
when parikha told us she wanted plaid blocks, I had no idea what she meant and I got a little scared. she thankfully sent us a little sketch with do’s and don’ts and I got to it. I love all the fabric and colors she sent. I had fun spacing out the stripes and playing with different thicknesses (why does that sound dirty?). I think the orange one is my favorite because the large print really works with the solid stripes. I can’t wait to see this quilt come together and finally see the plaid effect she’s going for.
